+--- Thread: TiVo-like instant replay button (/showthread.php?tid=58)
- mdm180 - 2003-10-03
i would like to suggest that an instant replay button be added like what is found on tivo (and many other devices). i believe tivo's instant replay is an 8-second jump back. i have gotten so used to using it on tivo that i am always searching for it when i am watching videos on xbmp/xbmc.
thanks for reading and great work on xbmp/xbmc.

okay. here's what you have to do:
find the input.conf file in the mplayer dir. open it with notepad (or whatever editor you prefer) and find the line that says "down seek -60". due to the way the internals work, when you push the right button, xbmc sends a keypress of the *down* key to the mplayer core. if you change this line to read "down seek -8" you will get the behavior you want. in fact, you can set whatever behavior you want (the mplayer docs have a list of commands you can use. i might make a post with the other keybindings and their corrosponding keys on the xbox controller.)
