I have pets and kids and it gets annoying when you're watching a movie and they grab the controller or accidentally hit a button on the controller and end up fast forwarding the movie. I want to suggest a feature where you "lock" the controller by pressing the white button + back button. Once locked the only buttons available is the right thumb sticks up and down for volume and A for pause. If you press any other button a little lock pops up to let you know the xbmc is locked. To unlock press white + back buttons again or reboot the xbox.

Hi,
I'd like a feature where the controllers can be locked/unlocked with a certain key combination so playback won't be accidentally interrupted.

this is a pretty good idea actually....for me at least, because my controller's triggers are screwed up and it tends to start rewinding or fastforwarding by itself haha. I usually have to take the batteries out everytime i watch something. But for more practical use, i can see it being useful. Or even if you have a party or something and don't want people messing with it.

I couldn't live without my wireless logitech controllers. However I have 1 maybe 2 which does this auto forward/rewind. I hope the deadzone setting can fix this, will try tonight.

ah, well its not the thumbstick for me. It's the triggers for me. I thought it strange there would be a deadzone for triggers when you mentioned it...lol
