When playing music and the visualization comes on, what key will get me back to the menu (besides Stop)?

Hi althekiller,
There's no TAB key on my remote. Since you're politely asking me to read the fine manual, which manual would that be that describes the mapping between arbitrary LIRC remotes and stopping the screensaver?
I really enjoy using XBMC but the tone in these forums is difficult to tolerate.
Regards,

Yes, his reply was a little on the terse side, however "Key" suggests a keyboard to me, and indeed I presumed that was what you were referring to.
At any rate, you now know the keyboard uses "Tab" to switch, that at least gets you as far as the action involved and what the standard remote maps it to (keymap.xml). How you get that into LIRC is something you'll have to investigate a little further. If there's no documentation in the manual, then please consider writing some if and when you find the answer.
Thanks,
Jonathan
