Is there any way of changing how the navbar is displayed when a video is playing? It is sometimes annoying when it pops up just because I moved the mouse. Can it be set to only popup from a keystroke for example?

You would probably be modifying the skin, so you can either ask the author of the skin for a fix or put on your skinning hat. Suggest you try other skins that might suit your fancy, there's got to be a dozen. Some skins allow a screen shift, and then the navbar is completely out of view. Alternatively you could disable mouse use.

Try something like this in your userdata keymaps mouse.xml (copy the default from system then edit)

Code:
<FullScreenVideo>

    <mouse>

        <wheelup>Rewind</wheelup>

        <wheeldown>FastForward</wheeldown>

        <mousemove>noop</mousemove>

    </mouse>

  </FullScreenVideo>

Thanks for the replies.
If it's that complicated I think I'll stick with what I have.
I was assuming there would be some settings for changing what input devices did. Everything else seems so customisable.

Its not really that complicated
File: NoMouseMove.xml

Code:
<keymap>

  <FullScreenVideo>

    <mouse>

      <mousedrag>noop</mousedrag>

      <mousemove>noop</mousemove>

    </mouse>

  </FullScreenVideo>

  <VideoMenu>

    <mouse>

      <mousedrag>mousedrag</mousedrag>

      <mousemove>mousemove</mousemove>

    </mouse>

  </VideoMenu>

  <VideoOSD>

    <mouse>

      <mousedrag>mousedrag</mousedrag>

      <mousemove>mousemove</mousemove>

    </mouse>

  </VideoOSD>

</keymap>

Just download and place in folder: 'keymaps'
To get to keymaps folder -
Press: 'Windows" key + 'R'
Paste in this command: %appdata%\Kodi\userdata\keymaps\
Press OK

You can map to a keystroke via addon: Keymap Editor
