Or create a shortcut to launch the FTV Launcher. Android will just suspend XBMC until you open it again.
Is there anyway to make a dummy menu in XBMC to exit back into Amazon interface, without having to navigate to Exit each time. I'd like a AmazonVideo menu point, that does nothing but close XBMC. This makes it easier for my wife to uderstand how to get to AmazonVideo and then use the Dummy Plex action in fireTV to launch XBMC again....
Better would be an option that just puts XBMC in the background until I'd click dummy plex action and it would be in the foreground (w/o reloading all components of XBMC)
And yes, this is relevant to XBMC, because it is running on the FireTV box, hence the thread name "Amazon Fire TV for XBMC" ... It would be nice to just be able to switch between the two more intuitively

I am using a CEC reomote (LG simple LINK), because the FireTV can't control my other gadgets, but my CEC remote can control fireTV....but it lacks a home button. So hitting HOME is not an option.
FTV launcher? Where is this? Under Android Apps in XBMC, I do not see this. Is it hidden in a different way. Do you mind explaining where this is exactly?
Once this is set, it is perfect and does everything I want it too. Even play BD.iso files (3D sucks left and right frames are miss-aligned)
