#1) whenever I play an mkv file, subtitles are on by default. Is there a way to deafault the subs to "off"? There has to be but I am just not seeing it anywhere

#2) Ever since I upgraded to Dahrma build, the +/- on the keboard does not work for volume up or down. Is there a way to re-asign this?

Thanks in advance.

When you go into the settings from the OSD to turn off subtitles there's a tick box somewhere labelled "save these settings as the default" or words to that effect.

B****r, this is almost certainly my fault. I've just realised that I've messed up the keymap in a recent change I've made. You'll probably find that - and + do page down and page up. For now open %appdata%\xbmc\userdata\keymaps and edit the keyboard.xml that's lurking there and delete the lines:

<!-- MCE uses equals (plus) for channel up, minus for channel down -->
<equals>PageUp</equals>
<minus>PageDown</minus>

If you're using a build later than beta2 the lines will be in C:\program Files\XBMC\system\keymaps\keyboard.xml instead. I need to fix this asap.

LOL thanks for the info!
Sorry to point out your mistake

Sorry to point out your mistake :)

It's a good job you spotted it before Dharma was released or I really wouldn't be popular :-)

LOL.
Well then, I'm glad to be of service

FYI, I've already reverted the remapping the other day

Hmmm
not seeing those lines in C:\Program Files\XBMC\system\keymaps\keyboard.xml

This is all part of my attempts to retain compatability with Media Center. MCE uses minus and equals for channel down and up. I think MCE also uses ctrl-minus and ctrl-equals for channel down and up, so it should be safe to put those in the keymap. However I'm away from my PC so I can't easily check.

I'll look again next week.
