As per earlier post - http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2019499 remap it to input the C button command
Or try use the Keymap Editor add on - http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=168767

Can anyone advise how well the nVidia remote control works with Kodi? It's got two buttons below the navigation circle. What do these buttons do in Kodi?

I wouldn't want to buy the remote if it has no back button functionality or something in Kodi.

I don't have the remote, but I believe that the 2 buttons are back/return and Home, which takes you back to Android TV home screen.

Unless you are just wanting a matching set, I would save my money and buy a more versatile remote to use for Kodi.

Thank you. That tool is thoroughly confusing to use and appears to replace the Leanback Keyboard with Multilanguage Keymap Redefiner.

I select 'Harmony Keyboard #1' , 'Add remapping' for Menu button to C.

It works but the downside is that it seems to disable onscreen keyboard.

Good to know, what about the Kodi add on, that way it will only be in operation during Kodi use. I couldn't get it to work on my Nexus Player. My Shield is still on the way.

Hmmmm....Keymap Editor works fine on my Fire TV, Chromebox & Shield. It shouldn't be any different on the NP.

It would never save the settings, it received all info correctly, I would save and exit, nothing took, go back in and the settings were there as though nothing had been done.
I posted this in the thread at the time.

In the latest build I can find - kodi-20150531-0340d4e-shield-armeabi-v7a.apk ::

The option to use "Always use the Channel Numbers from the Backend(s)" is missing from the LiveTV screen when I enable the MythTV.PVR add-on. It is the only PVR add-on I have enabled. I have not loaded a "generic" image to see if it is there - is this a known specific issue to these builds?

Other than that, it is working well except for some slight degradation due to lack of MP2/VC1 decoders at times.

TIA,

Check your settings level. I think it needs to be on advanced or expert.

Indeed - I never went back to the TV settings after I changed it - Thanks!

Does anyone have ServerWMC PVR add-on working with the test build? It keeps telling me that a PVR add-on is not enabled even though I just enabled it. But then I go back and it is disabled. I am able to connect to the ServerWMC instance just fine with a Windows Kodi 15.0 client. I can get it to work in 14.2, but the guide takes 12 seconds to load up each time, along with the rest of the app being very sluggish.

I believe this is the relevant part of the log:

i installed kodi on my shield tv as soon as it arrived, and it works pretty flawlessly, the only issue being the epg taking a while to load, something i have experienced on most devices i've tried kodi on.

i have found that if you enable, configure, disable, then re-enable, serverwmc pvr will activate properly. I am not using the development build, but i have experienced what you're talking about.

EDIT: didn't realize you lot were using kodi specifically for the shield. i'v been using normal kodi for android and everything works spectacularly

Unfortunately this did not work for me. Thanks for the suggestion!
