Play / Pause button while in library. - kiboy6 - 2012-02-08

Wherever I am in XBMC I would expect the play/pause button to toggle the paused status of any playing music or video.

However if I am browsing the library and press the play/pause button XBMC will play the currently highlighted item instead of pausing the playing music.

Any one have any idea how to change this behaviour?

Thanks

edit:

Figured this out with some further forum searching. This required a change to appcommand.xml in my userdata keymaps folder.

I added the line
<play_pause>Play</play_pause>
in the global section.

Here's the thread that showed me how : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=118544

I´m sorry to say that the replacement remote has started to become irritating.

The down button does not always work and sometimes it double triggers. The overall response of the directional buttons seems to have degraded after a couple of days in use Sad

Also i´m affected by the Kernel bug that does not always load the receiver until i unplug and re plug it. This is hopefully fixed by a software update though.

So, how do we do this? I need another replacement. This will be my third remote.

Also, what about the special gift we were supposed to get for pre-ordering last October? I was order 80, i've received two bad products and no special gift.

Is that another new batch after the March batch ? Got rid of my preorder remote and was thinking of getting myself another remote next month, but maybe should wait a couple of months Smile

I Googled this remote and it says it's for Boxee...

Good question. If the March 5 batch isn't fully working, I'd rather wait for a batch that is than deal with another RMA.

No, what you see is what you get, this remote will never get backlit keys

I believe this situation has been resolved, the unit you received will be replaced by Motorola.

What happened was, we got 92 remotes sent as part of a pre production run, we sent some of these out to customers and 2 came back reporting further issues with the D-Pad, Motorola have taken this feedback on board and changed the PCB to use Gold plated connectors instead of Carbon Ink, the issue has been due to tight tolerances with the connections between the buttons and PCB

As I've said before, anyone affected will get a replacement and there will be no cost to them.

Sorry for the lack of gift, the plan was to send out some branded sweets, but due to all the issues this got sidelined. We can send you a mars bar if you like?

What remote is he holding on top of it? I pre ordered one because I am going through every remote possible to find the right solution. The only thing wrong with this remote is if you quit XBMC, you need to go grab a keyboard and mouse to interact in WIndows. I use the Logitech diNovo mini and it's my favorite so far.
