Keymapping issue

gregeeh · October 23, 2018 at 4:39 AM

Hi all,

Just installed TvH (Version 4.2.5) on my LE Box (version 8.2.3.1) and I have a question regarding keymapping in timeshifting mode.

When timeshifting live TV after a pause of several minutes I can skip forward and backwards using the left and right keys, and that's working fine. However pressing up and down keys will change to the next channel. I would like to program these two keys to BigSkipForward and BigSkipBackward.

Can someone please point me in the right direction to do this?

TIA

Greg

Code

cp /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/keyboard.xml /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/keyboard.xml
nano /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/keyboard.xml
<make changes>
systemctl restart kodi

Copy the default keymap ^ and edit things. Also see HOW-TO:Modify keymaps - Official Kodi Wiki

Thanks for the quick reply. Will take a look at that.

Edit: Worked like a charm - Thanks.
