Hi all

I use my iPad to control my xbmc and wanted to have a suspend key. I have the s setup but that brings up the power menu, I want to be able to suspend my xbmc pc with a single key and I was wondering how do you do this as I am not used to the command lines

And also what keys are free to use

Thanks for any help

There are Suspend and Hibernate functions available in XBMC though neither are mapped to keys. Adding a mapping for the key of your choice is straightforward on PCs (see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Mod...yboard.xml), but I'm afraid I don't know how you'd do it on an iPad.

thanks

so for suspend it would be like this below which would make the Z key the suspend ?

to work anywhere in xbmc

<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<Z>suspend</Z>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>


and for it to just work on the home page and not on other parts of xbmc it would be

<keymap>
<Home>
<keyboard>
<Z>suspend</Z>
</keyboard>
</Home>
</keymap>

is this right ?


cheers

I haven't tried those, but they look sensible. Try them and see.
