Hi,

I've searched high and low but I simply cannot find a way to have the EPG open when I press OK on my remote whilst watching live tv without affecting the behaviour of the button for fullscreen video from my library.

In keyboard.xml I found that I can make an entry under <FullscreenVideo> mapping XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 31,0, 10,0) to OK and that will bring up the EPG when watching tv. However, that also brings the epg up when I'm watching videos from my library - I only want it to happen when I'm watching live tv.

Is there any way to map keys specifically for live tv?

Yes, there is
Add following section to your remote.xml|keymap.xml and put desired mappings in there

Code:

<FullscreenLiveTV>
    <remote>
        <select>XBMC.ActivateWindow(pvrosdguide)</select>
        ...
    </remote>
</FullscreenLiveTV>

    </remote>
</FullscreenLiveTV>

The <FullscreenLiveTV> tag was exactly what I was looking for. XBMC.ActivateWindow(pvrosdguide) doesn't work for me for some reason, so I just used XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 31,0, 10,0) instead which works fine.

Thanks!

Hi guys

I've tried around with the keyboard.xml and was able to create all input handlings like I want it except one special thing.

I can't find out how to directly switch to a channel in the "pvrosdguide" window. When I press select / enter in the guide osd the information dialog pops up where xbmc asks me if I want to record or to switch the channel. Is it possible to directly switch the channel. I would create my timers with the context menu or info menu instead.

Thanks for your help.

+1 The OK button in fullscreen PVR mode, should either bring up channel list or EPG!

add the following to advancedsettings.xml

Code:

<pvr>
         <showepginfoonselect>false</showepginfoonselect>
</pvr>

(If I had a quid for every time I'd posted this, i'd have, ooh, 3 or 4 quid by now )

Is there a reason why is this option not documented on the wiki?

yes, because you haven't added it. IT'S A WIKI!!!

I cant seem to get the right behavior for this advanced setting. When I am in the EPG, I choose a channel with my remote "ok". It doesn't switch to that channel in full screen. I add the setting in advanced xml. I want to switch to the channel I choose and have it close the EPG (not the channel list) and show the channel fullscreen. I don't know if this is a different settings somewhere.

There's a setting for it in the standard setting location, I think thw advancedsetting is obsolete.

The XBMC. has been depreciated and is now dropped if I remember well.

So for example change <teletext>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Teletext)</teletext> to <teletext>ActivateWindow(Teletext)</teletext> for all your XBMC. prefixed commands to get them to work again.
