Hi there, has anyone had any luck with the "Restart XBMC" hotkey? I programmed it to be F7 and then have it be a button on my Harmony remote. It quits the program, but doesn't restart. I have to wonder if it has something to do with it still being called XBMC?
Edit: I can see RestartApp is a thing and I DO have Windows 7. Wonder why it's not working 0_o
Edit 2: Ah, I see it's something not actually supported it seems. Not the editor's fault, but Kodi's

Great program add-on.
I see you're able to set keys to open any video add-on. I probably looked right by it. But there a key to open up the whole add-ons section?
Thanks

Is there a way to assign a button to rate songs?
I don't see anything related to that in "Item actions" or "Music".
I'd like to be able to go to library/songs, list all my songs and rate them by pressing a remote button.
Currently it is very inconvenient and afaik, there only these 2 possibilities:
1) Play the song in fullscreen mode and press up/down to increase/decrease rating
2) Press info on song, navigate to rating, increase/decrease
Is it even possible to change the rating just by "hovering" over the song and pressing a remote button?

New to this add-on. Do you need to be able to mess around with the key map file to use this add-on as I see a lot of people mentioning that. Also can this add-on help me to reconfigure my Xbox remote?

On screen directions don't help?
You start the app then press buttons when told to.

Are the reconfigured commands saved when doing a back up? Will I be able to back up my box to use on another box?
Thanks

New to this on my Nvidia Shield with SPMC.
It saved the modified config initially, but when I restarted my Shield it went back to default keymaps.
Any ideas?

I'm trying to set a button on my remote to trigger the "Movie information" window that is available from the context menu from the list of video files. The only problem is that I can't find the video context menu in the Keymap editor. Is it included?

Thanks VK - much appreciated!
The only other command I need on my remote now is one to reset the volume when it goes silent. I don't know why, but I have to reset the volume regularly when a little audio icon appears in the top right-hand corner of the screen (not the mute icon). I do this with with F10 on my keyboard, but apparently it's usually F8...

Hi, tried a couple of days ago to remap a key for pvr window, but instead it has no effect. Wiki page below describes that some pvr windows were made more specific since Helix, is it possible to update keymap editor to include these changes?
