Full Version: Keyboard shortcut directly to Video/Files?

Hi,
Is there a keyboard shortcut to jump directly to the Video/Files screen?
I know I can use Ctrl+E to get to the main Video Library screen, and I can configure Kodi to go straight to the Video/Files when I click the Video option in the Main Menu with the mouse. But I'd like to set up a button on my remote to jump straight to Video/Files instead of just the main Video page
Thanks!

No, but you can create one yourself.

Open your keyboard.xml file in \Userdata (wiki)\keymaps
This is the code you need...
xml:
<v mod="alt">ActivateWindow(Videos,sources://video/,return)</v>
Insert it into the Global section.

I've used Alt-v, but you can change it to another key combination, as long as you are not changing it to something that is already in use.
Legend, thanks very much for your help!
