Dear Board.
I asked from you to implement Player.FinishTime(), and you did. I have utilized that in Skin for quite some time now (in VideoFullScreen.xml).
Can there be also function to return current playing time in %.
We have System.Time() and we have Player.FinishTime()?

Dear Board.
Can there be <PageSkip Forward> maped to FastForwad' button
and <PageSkip Backward> maped to 'Rewind' buttons on IR remote?
All the System etc dialogs that have long file/items listings should have pageSkip, so that the hopping on the list could be a lot of faster.
Example, PlugIN SurfTheChannel under 'TV shows' has over 670 items on the list. Scrolling to the middle of if take DownArrow_press' a bit of time. Page skip could hop one page (some 30 items visible on one "page") with one keyPress.

PageSkip can be maped when player is off and common dialog is on. during media play, regular FF,Rew are mapd. function modes.

there's no such thing as conditional key mappings.
and in any case i would strongly oppose such a change - there's nothing quite as bad as a user interface where one button can do several things in one place

player.progress returns a label in % if you use it in a label at least pretty sure it does
