I guess it's mostly because we are using a custom profile, but you figured it out, that's great. :-)

There are times when I will try to edit a show name, and all I can do is type the characters. U/D/L/R doesn't seem to function.
vanOert Wrote:That is standard keyboard.xml behaviour for the "end" button. Try it on your standard keyboard. This is the actual code from the keyboard.xml:
Code:<keyboard>

<end>XBMC.ShutDown()</end>

NiffStipples Wrote:I have tested several delay-settings, but i can't solve the problem of "repeating key presses". This always happens when i'm pressing a button (e.g.: direction up, ...) to short. In this case i keeps repeating my last command from my harmony and stops when i'm pressing another key :/
The second "issue" (it's more an annoying difference between keyboard and remote control) could be connected with the first problem. Key presses on my harmony seem to be transfered very slow, it takes ages to scroll through a longer list of films or tv shows.

First of all, congrats for this specefic topic for Harmony remotes & XBMC users... very helpful.
I am currently using XBMC installed in my ASRock ION330HT HTPC under Windows 7 in combination with a Harmony 1000 remote... everything is runnig OK, but I would love to improve the funcionality of the remote by adding some "keyboard actions" to some soft buttons on the remote.
If you have a look to this, in the section "Actions" you can find many commands that does not have any assigned a key. Eg: there is an action called "AudioNextLanguage" that will "change to the next audio track in a video with multiple audio tracks" pretty useful when playing mkv videos, but given that there is no key for that action, the only way to change audios is going to the OSD Player Controls and navigate to the audio options... something a bit annoying considering that regarding the subtitles ("action" name: NextSubtitle) there is key ("L") to change them...
So the question is: is there any way to assign a key on the keyboard to the "actions" listed here
Thanks all and pls apoligize my poor English.
