The default (system) remote.xml is located in /home/pi/.xbmc-current/xbmc-bin/share/xbmc/system/keymaps
Remember though, .xbmc-current is a symlink to the active build so I don´t recommend editing/using that as a custom keymap as it will switch back to defaut when switching build, but good to know if you want to use it as a template.
Create remote.xml and put it in the folder keymaps in your user data: /home/pi/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml
This will override the default actions.
The following will use smallstepback when pushing back in fullscreenvideo:
Just as an example of more things you can do, here is mine remote.xml:
The keyboard part was just a test if it was possible in remote.xml and it was. You can also use <remote> and <button id="xxxx">.
To find out which id a button has (or to see if the button is used by XBMC), turn on debug logging and look for "OnKey: xxxx pressed, action is yyyy".
Edit:
Another new feature in Gotham is up and down in fullscreenvideo which now is using ChapterOrBigStepForward/ChapterOrBigStepBack which is the same as BigStepForward/BigStepBack in Frodo.
But in Gotham BigStepForward/BigStepBack will not use chapters even if they exists, so if you don´t like chapters and want 10min steps always you can remap up and down to BigStepForward/BigStepBack.
