Hi there,

I have a little problem...
I want to map some buttons globally...
They should be global (instead of live tv), and should take me to home screen, music, videos or pictures...
I tried like this:
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<o>ActivateWindow(home)</o>
<t>ActivateWindow(favourites)</t>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

But if i click this keys, there´s nothing... :/

Moreover, i want to map a playlist (music or video) GLOBALLY to a key.
It´s ok with:
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<n>ActivateWindow(playlist)</n>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>
BUT in this case the key has no function on home screen, in tv window, ...
It only ok in music section... :/

Has anyone solutions for this?

According to the info here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...yboard.xml The <global> section is a fall through - they will only be used if the button is not used in the current window's section. Maybe that's your issue.

Did you try using the Keymap Editor addon, that creates a gen.xml & might give you better results.

Thanks for the answer
Mh, i will try it...

Thanks again.
I solved the issues by getting the standard keyboard.xml from master and editing this one...
Maybe my one was old^^

Hello, since Kodi 17 , my keyboard shortcuts are not responding. I set ALT+M to go to the music library. When I'm in the home screen and press ALT+M, nothing happens. Same for ALT+V which should lead to the video files screen. Strange, the ALT+P for pictures is still responding. So what's happening?
