Hi all,
I´m using Rapier skin on my iMac and a ATV 2 and I want to map a shutdown key since I don't see a button in the Home Rapier screen.
I know I can use the "S" key to toggle the shutdown menu but my intention is to just Quit XMBC with a single hit of a key.
Now for the Apple TV 2 I have the same issue but, I want to map a key or a combination of keys to quit XBMC.
I´m really new to this and I can´t find a way to do it.
Any help please.
Thank you.

The XBMC.ShutDown triggers the default shutdown function defined in the system settings under power saving.
XBMC.Powerdown powers down your system.
XBMC.Quit shuts down XBMC.
Are you trying to shut down you computer or only XBMC?
The Rapier update for Frodo has a POWER Menu, which features all the shutdown functions.

I'm trying to Shutdown XBMC. XBMC.Shutdown works fine on another key but not the close button, that's what I'm trying to figure out.

I don't see anywhere in the debug log that has that info, but ShowKey says close key is
<f4 mod="alt">Notification(Key, f4, 3)</f4>

Sending ALT/F4 command to XBMC doesn't shut down the program properly. I just tried the same and it sort of force quits XBMC, but the application still runs in the background of the system. It does not have the time to turn off all the services etc.
It's definately the ALT/F4 command conflicting with the XBMC.ShutDown or XBMC.Quit.
