[RELEASE] XBMC WebBrowser (Windows)

AddonScriptorDE: Hi
Thanks for a really nice program.
You wrote that I could add the key I liked for what I wanted in a post here.
But I could not add backspace or ESC for get out of the program.

Why is this? It would have being nice to have the same as inside XBMC.

And one more thing:
If I add it as an favorite, and use it in the main menu (maybe the same elsewhere to), I have to push
the back button when I`ll exit the browser. It looks like it think it should be inside a sort list.
Is there an fix for this?

When can we expect a new version?
And yes esc button not work in frodo 12.2 is this error because I use frodo 12.2

Best Regards

The WebBrowser is made for HTPCs - Of course it starts in fullscreen mode. If you really need a window mode (dont know why), i can implement it for you...

Please read the first post! Default key for closing the browser is NumPad0, but you can map any key.

I will have a look at this and will try to implement an option for this...

I disabled mapping ESC, Back, TAB, ArrowKeys, Enter because they are useful default browser keys.
Will be changed in the next version, so you can map them again. (Only ARROW KEYS + ENTER will still be unmappable because they are needed for navigation)

Thank You accept suggestions..
In the next version, can we expect browser image for sites.
And I have problem with XBMC_WebBrowser_KeyMapper, is too large on screen I cant see all command.
I was tray on two different screen with different resolution, the result is the same.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for answer, I really love this plugin.
This works great, it`s really nice to just use the Harmony One, instead of my gyro keyboard.

Thanks, love it!

Hi, Thanks for the plugin it works really well however I don't seem to be able to have the mouse hide when playing a film in lovefilm. Has anybody else come accross this issue?
