Holding down Play causes ATV to enter suspend mode, not DVD context menu

Hi Everyone

My appleTV will enter suspend mode, when holding down play on my apple remote instead of displaying the context menu. (Where you can enable/disable/change subtiles etc.)

I've configured Launcher remote to (not harmony)
I've configured xbmc to standard remote
XBMC pre-10.5 r31795 (I get same result with 9.11)
OS Darwin 8.2.2

Any idea how to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

During playback pressing/holding menu exits the movie and takes you to the XBMC menu where you select what movie to watch.

How do I access the OSD during playback. (See link)

I think the wiki still talks about holding play, but maybe it is outdated:

I assume it must be possible to change subtitles during playback.

Thanks in advance,
Benjamin

Hi

I managed to solve the problem, by downloading "joystick.AppleRemote.xml" from http://trac.xbmc.org/browser/trunk/system/keymaps.

Renaming it to keymap.xml and placing it in /Users/frontrow/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/.

I had to changing every (at least the most important functions) entry with button id="7", so now I can access the OSD using the menu button, obviously this causes me to lose some other functionality, but the OSD is essential.

Regards,
Benjamin
