Would it break the function of those keys when scrolling through the movie list..
search for "pageup" and "PageDown" in the keyboard keymap file and then swap them.
you'll see multiple ones in there for different parts of the player (for menu, fullscreen video, music, global, ect)
don't ask me which one to change, i don't use the keyboard so idk. Just change them until you figure out the correct one.

because some people like things the way they like them and since they give you the option to change it how ever you want there really isn't any reason to complain about it.
Who are these some people?
You are making things up without adequate knowledge...
Only the kodi developers can answer this.
You are not understanding the question.
I know you can edit the layout.
It is asking why was the KEYs made to do this in reverse function to most of the other media players.
This topic doesn't relate to you if:
-Do you use other media players besides kodi?
-You don't even use the keyboard.
If you are using a remote control.
I suggest you download the other media players.
Press NEXT, PREVIOUS button on your remote while using those programs.
You will see that it is now working in reverse.
This is assuming that you have setup the controller to work with Kodi only and assigned PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN to the buttons to function like how Kodi setup.
Also look here
http://kodi.wiki/view/Keyboard_controls
Those keys are not even assigned to anything.
So in short, I know you can edit the layout.
The problem I have is I believe the keys have been default assigned incorrectly and not according to the standard.
This is proven if you download those other media players I have listed.
And those media players are not some obscure unknown players.
They are the most popular downloaded and used players on the net.
If anyone that used those players and kodi at the same time.
When they use their remote control.
They will see that the keys get reversed when they used those media players and then change to kodi.
Look at these media. You are saying these 4 media players, the most downloaded and popular, all got it wrong and only kodi is right?
-Potplayer
-Gom
-Zoom player
