Disable back button on home screen
#1
I'm trying to make my XBMC install as bullet proof as possible for my rather non-technical parents.

Last night's lesson was playing music from the library. This went fairly smoothly, but I noticed that when on the home screen while the music was playing, when pressing the back button it displayed the visualisation screen. This is entirely unnecessary in my case, and basically quite confusing for them as they lose track of where they are in the navigation.

Is there any way of disabling the default behaviour of the back button at the home screen, when music is playing? So when you press back, nothing whatsoever happens?

Thanks

and the "noop" action?

noop = No operation.

I didn't make myself clear - I was questioning whether I should assign that action to the back key, is that the best way to do what I want?

Yes, but only in the <home> section.

Thanks. For anyone who might also want to do this:

<home>
<keyboard>
<backspace>noop</backspace>
</keyboard>
</home>

That's what you need to add to your keymaps file.
