yes, it works after going back to main menu, thanks! But it's not too convenient, I must say

But it's not too convenient, I must say

Hm..., ok, I also recognized it, but it was fine for me and my wife for the few buttons the siri remote has. 

What do you think about the following change?
​​​

• I defined "FullScreen" to the button id="10" (swipe left) in the global section. 
  
• I changed "CodecInfo" from button id="10" to id="11" (swipe right) in the relevant sections.
  

At the moment I do not have the possibility to test this. Maybe someone else or you can try it?

EDIT: What do you think about this function of mrmc?

Do think it's possible to port this to Kodi Leia?

@hoppel118 sorry for not getting back soon, we had some issues with running app on device and then other tasks will test your change asap (but probably it'll be in a few days)

[kambala]

with this change it's much more convenient thanks!

we already have an issue about the focus engine  https://github.com/SylvainCecchetto/xbmc/issues/45

[hoppel118]

Perfect!

[meccs]

Short questions:

1. what is the "ir play" stuff? What does the ir stand for? Infrared?
2. is there a way to program a button as "hold right side and press" or "hold left and press" to make it behave more like in other apps like Netflix etc.? So forward is not just "touch right" but "touch right and press" for example?

[desepticon]

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a keymap that'll work with my mac. I found an app that allows me to pair it, but all I'm getting is play/pause and menu goes to the beginning in full screen video.

[lakinen69]

What is the latest working keymap in this thread for Apple TV 4K remote and Kodi 19.3?

This default one is pretty horrible.

Thanks!

[Jönke]

I wonder the same , i cant get keymap addon to work on Tvos 🤔

[hoppel118]

Hi, I don’t use my Apple TV with Kodi at the moment. I am using the Nvidia Shield.

Did you try my keymap 6-7 posts above yours?

Regards Hoppel

[lakinen69]

I've made some edits to .xml file, but not sure how to transfer it from my iMac to Kodi 19.3 on Apple TV 4K.

I've followed instructions from this thread, but when I set the location folder and browsed it through Kodi on Apple TV - the folder on iMac appears to be empty even when it's not (the xml file is there and some other stuff).

Is there a setting or something like that in Kodi to show hidden/xml files or something?

EDIT: I've managed to do it through FTP/remote server.

[Deihmos]

Is there no way to prevent closing to home screen when pressing back? Can it be configured to bring up the shutdown menu instead?
