Something i do all the time, takes several clicks on the remote, and i was wondering if a single key can be programmed in keymaps xml file to do the job : When watching TV (in full screen), press a single key on the remote that will bring up the CHANNELS list to browse and select another channel
In other words, can we have somehow the GetDirectory (pvr://channels/tv/All channels/) command, programmed in a key, to use while watching TV?
yes, so for example, i have the channel list when i press channel up or down (i can still go up and down the channels by pressing up and down)... i have this in my keymaps:
Code:
<FullscreenLiveTV>
<keyboard>
<PageUp>XBMC.ActivateWindow(PVROSDChannels)</PageUp>
<PageDown>XBMC.ActivateWindow(PVROSDChannels)</PageDown>
</keyboard>
</FullscreenLiveTV>
Many thanks AshG for reply, what you say would be perfect for me, but your example is not working for me. I deleted everything in my xml, added just your code to test the pageup & pagedown buttons, they STILL just switch to next/previous channel. I did try clean install, i did try installing Krypton, i did try naming the xml file "remote.xml", "keyboard.xml", gen.xml, nothing changed... as if key map xml file does not exist
win10 installation, maybe this is the problem
would happily format + go fresh libreelec if you think this is whats needed
You are right Nick, the answer was in log

I just copied AshG code above to a fresh xml file, forgot to add <keymap> tag
