Remote mapping for FF?

AllanMarcus · 2012-04-07 06:56

Hello,

I'm using Eden and an ATV2. I would like to remap the next and previous buttons to FF and RW, but I'm just not sure how to do that. I've think I need to add a keyboard.xml file to /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata, but I don't know what to put into the file. I've looked at ttp://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Modify_keyboard.xml but i'm still confused.

If anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Allan

In this examples you could change (e.g. if you wanted up button to be FF and down to be RW):

Code:

<FullscreenVideo>

    <joystick name="AppleRemote">

      <button id="1">BigStepForward</button>

      <button id="2">BigStepBack</button>

      <button id="3">StepBack</button>

      <button id="4">StepForward</button>

      <button id="5">OSD</button>

      <button id="6">Stop</button>

      <button id="7">AudioNextLanguage</button>

      <button id="8">SmallStepBack</button>

      <button id="9">Rewind</button>

      <button id="10">FastForward</button>

      <button id="11">FastForward</button>

      <button id="12">Pause</button>

      <button id="13"></button>

    </joystick>

  </FullscreenVideo>

To

Code:

<FullscreenVideo>

    <joystick name="AppleRemote">

      <button id="1">FastForward</button>

      <button id="2">Rewind</button>

      <button id="3">StepBack</button>

      <button id="4">StepForward</button>

      <button id="5">OSD</button>

      <button id="6">Stop</button>

      <button id="7">AudioNextLanguage</button>

      <button id="8">SmallStepBack</button>

      <button id="9">Rewind</button>

      <button id="10">FastForward</button>

      <button id="11">FastForward</button>

      <button id="12">Pause</button>

      <button id="13"></button>

    </joystick>

  </FullscreenVideo>

If you wanted to do it for left and right buttons then use the example above but put FastForward and Rewind in button ID 2 and 3.

Thanks for putting me on the right track. This turned out to be the final solution. I put this into a file in

/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/keymaps/Joystick.AppleRemote.xml
chown mobile

Code:

<keymap>

  <FullscreenVideo>

    <joystick name="AppleRemote">

      <button id="1">StepForward</button>

      <button id="2">StepBack</button>

      <button id="3">Rewind</button>

      <button id="4">FastForward</button>

      <button id="5">Pause</button>

      <button id="6">Stop</button>

      <button id="7">OSD</button>

      <button id="8">Fullscreen</button>

      <button id="9">Rewind</button>

      <button id="10">FastForward</button>

      <!-- pageup     -->      <button id="13">BigStepForward</button>

      <!-- pagedown   -->      <button id="14">BigStepBack</button>

      <!-- SwipeLeft  -->      <button id="80">StepBack</button>

      <!-- SwipeRight -->      <button id="81">StepForward</button>

      <!-- SwipeUp    -->      <button id="82">BigStepForward</button>

      <!-- SwipeDown  -->      <button id="83">BigStepBack</button>

      <!-- FlickLeft  -->      <button id="85">Rewind</button>

      <!-- FlickRight -->      <button id="86">FastForward</button>

      <!-- FlickUp    -->      <button id="87">BigStepForward</button>

      <!-- FlickDown  -->      <button id="88">BigStepBack</button>

    </joystick>
