rebind up/down to not change channels - solidservo - 2017-02-21

Inside the TV section UP/DOWN changes channels, which means that it does not work like in the Videos/Movies sections.

How can I change the UP/DOWN function inside the TV module so that it behaves the same as in Videos/Movies?

may not be exactly what you are after but I found up/down changing channels was a problem for me accidently changing channels and so I set the setting to ask for conformation when changing channels, and found that it disabled the up/down channel change completely. what does it do in the video section, big step forwards/back? the setting I suggested won't enable that but at least it will stop you accidently changing channels if that's the issue.

I have this mapped in my userdata\keymaps\keyboard.xml file:

Code:
<keymap>

    <FullScreenLiveTV>

        <keyboard>

            <up>ActivateWindow(pvrosdchannels)</up>

            <down>ActivateWindow(pvrosdchannels)</down>

        </keyboard>

    </FullScreenLiveTV>

</keymap>

That pops up the small channel window so I can scroll through and change other channels. You can map it to other behavior if you prefer.

Go to settings-pvr&livetv-playback-confirm channel switching by pressing ‘ok’.
I believe ksooo put that in and i still thank him for it :-D
