I am using a "standard" MCE remote.

I kindly request to implement the record button support in the newer
XBMC version (Frodo) where finally the PVR support is now implemented.

This would allow with a simple record button press meanwhile running TV,
to start an instant recording for the actual TV channel.
Actually the context menue must be used for instant recording, and the
handling with a remote becomes a little uncomfortable.

It is just a missing line in the Buttonhandler.cpp
{"record" , ACTION_RECORD},


Second nearly same feature request for playing a video or ripped dvd. In the
filebrowser of xbmc I have always to use the context menu and select play
for a folder. Especially for ripped dvd. At this point would it be nice
that is be possible to press play on the remote and it start playing the movie
or ripped dvd in this selected folder.

kind regards

Update even in GUIWindowFullScreen.cpp must be then implemented the Action_record.
Sorry i forgot it to mentioned. An implementation is already done in Github/DAMGO.

Maybe its interesting for the main XBMC repository.

Kind regards
