Disable chapter markers - umbala - 2019-03-14

I asked this question in the Linux sub-forums since I'm running LibreELEC/CoreELEC, but I got no replies. I hope it's not against the rules to ask again here.

Is there a way to force KODI to ignore chapter makers in video files? I'm used to seeking a set amount through videos and some videos with chapter markers won't allow it to work the way I expect it.

How are you seeking in your videos? For keyboard, the keys [ and ] should give you +/- 10 mins skip. If you are using up and down, you need to create a new keymap.

Thanks for the reply. Pressing left and right works as expected even when chapter markers are present. The problem is when I press up and down for a longer seek KODI will jump to the chapter markers instead of the skip amount set in advancedsettings.xml

These are the two lines that set the skip size:

<timeseekforwardbig>60</timeseekforwardbig>
<timeseekbackwardbig>-60</timeseekbackwardbig>

Normally if I press up or down it skips 60 seconds, but if there's a chapter marker then it jumps to that instead. This is what I'm trying to disable.

Suggest doing a keymap for Fullscreenvideo with up key set to Seek(60) and down key Seek(-60). Looks like this:

Code:
<keymap>

  <FullscreenVideo>

    <keyboard>

        <up>Seek(60)</up>

        <down>Seek(-60)</down>

    </keyboard>

  </FullscreenVideo>

</keymap>

That works! Thanks for the help, and sorry for the late reply.
