Hey there...
I am trying to replicate Popcorn Hour's brilliant skimming controls with XBMC and
i figure it should be possible with the keymap.
For those who've never used a Popcorn Hour, when you play a video, pressing 1
will skip to the 10% point in that video, 2 will go to 20%, 3 is 30%, etc...
So by configuring my remote.xml's FullScreenVideo section to have something like :
Is this something that will work? I am not home now so i can't try it...
Also, will the SeekPercentageRelative(10) work? If so, i guess it would be a way of fixing the BigStepForward/Back? It is currently documented that BigStepForward/Back will jump by 10% but actually it jumps by 10 minutes. StepForward/Back is documented as jumping 1% but it actually does 30 seconds...
