Got Search (press s), Remind (press r) working, but I can't seem to find in the keymap editor m (for the categories), so I can re-map it to c.
Could you tell me where abouts it is located?

I moved my ffmpeg to data/data in Android (with Root access) (simply using the .py as a template)

I have a folder on my sda1 named Recordings.

I have enabled autoplaywiths in settings. I am currently recording the end of bbc news as a test.

One question is - do I need to define my path to save the recording as it's written as comment in the .py

I haven't made any changes:

Code:

# Play with your own preferred player and paths
if url:
    name = "%s = %s = %s" % (start,channel,title)
    name = name.encode("cp1252")
    filename = xbmc.translatePath("special://temp/%s.ts" % name)
    #filename = "/storage/recordings/%s.ts" % name         <----------------- Should I have inputted this (or my own path) above?
    ffmpeg = r"c:\utils\ffmpeg.exe"
    ffmpeg = r"/usr/bin/ffmpeg"
    cmd = [ffmpeg, "-y", "-i", url, "-c", "copy", "-t", str(seconds), filename]
    p = Popen(cmd,shell=True)
    #p = Popen(cmd,shell=False)

Your path depends on your device. Have a root around in adb if it's not obvious from whatever file manager you're using.
One of the examples uses the Kodi temp directory which should be writeable by ffmpeg.

Write the value of any variable you're interested in in the log with:
xbmc.log(repr(variable))
where variable might be cmd or filename for example.

Make sure ffmpeg is working on the command line first. You won't be able to see any error values when you run it from Kodi.
It needs the full path for the output path.

I have no idea on how to rn in cmd prompt in android ?

Hmm I'll have to do a lot more work I think.

I'm not even sure I have done things correctly. I used the binary example that you linked too. If i needed to do anything to that file, then I need to research how to

I did copy the wrong .playwith example.

Heres you android one:

Code:

# Play with your own preferred player and paths
if url:
    name = "%s=%s=%s" % (start,channel,title)
    name = re.sub(' ','_',name)
    name = name.encode("cp1252")
    filename = xbmc.translatePath("special://temp/%s.ts" % name)
    #filename = "/storage/external_storage/sda1/recordings/%s.ts" %name   <-------- My plan here is to change this special://home/recordings (for testing) (is this ok/will it work!?)
    ffmpeg = r"/data/data/ffmpeg"                                                               <------------------- To me this is the location of where i have put the ffmpeg file? I'll move it to special://home/
    cmd = [ffmpeg, "-y", "-i", url, "-c", "copy", "-t", str(seconds), filename]  <---------------- Need to read up
    p = Popen(cmd,shell=False)
    if p.wait() != 0:
        xbmc.log("There were some errors")

If I (for example) search for a programme from the EPG, it shows me in a new view, when the programme is on and what channels. I would like to be able to set a reminder from that view, rather than having to go back into the EPG and finding the programme. I would like to be able to set the reminder the same way I would from the EPG (via key press)

When I select the one on in 2 hours and go into the context menu, and set reminder, it set a reminder for what's on now

I'm guessing it may have something to do with keymapping.
I wonder if it is because I was accessing the context menu by pressing the left mouse button

solved it. I have just remapped the context menu to m, and now it works fine
