One of the best options is the KIOSK mode, but I noticed that I often have to:
- change the viewtype when I'm in the music section
- toggle between hide/show watched vids
So I wanted to assign a command to the keymap.xml for each of these actions.
It was a pain in the ass to find it but now as I have it, I think that others may want to do the same :
In the <MyVideoLibrary> section of the keymap.xml assign to the remote control you use :
And in the <global> section, insert
You may also wish to hide the settings access from home menu, then add to the global section:
And at least, why not assigning a command to activate or desactivate the Kiosk mode
add to the global section:
Oh Yeah ! THAT is a real media center

Code:
<a_key>SendClick(VideoLibrary,14)</a_key> <!-- toggle hide or show watched videos -->

<another_key>SetFocus(69)</another_key> <!-- shows the viewtype selection -->

<a_last_key>Skin.ToggleSetting(Kiosk)</a_last_key> <!-- enable/disable kiosk mode -->
