Hi All,
I've recently purchased a Shield Pro TV 2019 and I'm running the official kodi from google play. Just to confirm I haven't added any banned addons. I've been playing around with a logitech remote, FLIRC and the keymap editor to create some custom buttons to use during playback. I now wish to create a command to toggle through the audio streams, however I understand from another forum post this is not possible with the keymap editor addon. I understand that I need to go into keyboard.xml and add some code:
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=87649
My question is - having never used kodi outside of the Nvidia Shield and android boxes GUI - how do I even go about accessing this file to amend it? Do I need to plug the shield into my pc? Do I need to access it's IP address? Or do I somehow create this file on my PC and then transfer it to the shield somehow? If that is the case do I need to transfer the original keyboard.xml from the system area to my PC, amend it then transfer it back to the userdata area somehow?
Sorry for the newbie question, if someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. I also plan on making some changes to the advancedsettings.xml and guess the process to do that will be the same.
Many thanks
