Full Version: [WINDOWS] DVDPlayer control behavior

I was wondering if there is a way to change the behavior of "left", "right", "up", and "down" on the keyboard in XBMC when watching a video. Right now, left and right go back and forward in 30 seconds increments, and down and up in 10 minute increments.

I was wanting to switch that to be 10 seconds and 5 minutes respectively, but so far I can't find anyplace that that information is stored config-file wise, and don't see anything on the forums/FAQs -- it just seems to be "built in" to DVDPlayer. Is it possible to change these increments?
Yes, look in the wiki or online manual. Forgot what one its in. I know Ive seen it in the forums as well.
OK, thanks for the info. I've looked around a little bit more in the docs, and no solution yet, but I'll document a few things that seem pertinent:

http://www.xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Videos_Keyboard
This indicates that left/right are "Step Back" and "Step Forward", and down/up are "Big Step Back" and "Big Step Forward".

Then,
http://www.xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Keymap.xml
seems to indicate that "Step Back" and "Step Forward" move the video 1% of it's total time in whatever direction, and "Big Step Back" and "Big Step Forward" do the same but 10%.

However, I'm watching a 45 minute video clip, and pressing "Up" forwards it 10 minutes (which is obviously not 10% of 45 minutes). This code:

Seems to define some button actions, but so far this is all I've got and I don't see anywhere where there is a config file that keeps this information, it seems like it's sorta "built in" like I said before.

BUT if you say it's shown up on the forums before I'll believe you! Do you have any pointers or hints as to what more to search for?

Ahh yes, that looks exactly like where it must be, it definitely has the exact time amounts I was mentioning in there! They're labeled "timeseekforward" and similar, so I guess that's why I was having trouble tracking them down when I was searching for stuff like "Big Step Forward" and "Small Step Forward".

Thanks for the help everyone!
