Ok, I'll get screenshots and logs. I know it sounds crazy, but let's see what the logs say. Stay tuned...

Amulet Remote / Sends Tab command to XBMC when bumped

« on: April 23, 2013, 02:33:59 AM »

James,

Have any idea what the amulet remote would send the Tab command (fullscreen) when it's just jiggled or bumped. It's not in the upright position and the red light isn't on. It activates it's backlight feature and then sends the Tab command to Voxcommando. I don't want to delete the XBMC simple action because the 'Toggle Fullscreen' command gets used frequently. It's really annoying when you are watching a movie and someone kicks the remote on the couch.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,
Peter

So I know that you can run multiple instances of VC, but if I'm happy the way things are running or I want to move my settings over to the latest version, I presume I don't extract the latest version into my existing version. What's the best way to move to the latest version when it's released?

Thanks,
Peter

Thanks James. I'll give it a try.

You are correct...I'm running Frodo. 

Btw, you were right. The Amulet remote is a great mic, but the IR learning portion totally sucks. I got it to learn once and then it wiped itself out after losing power for a day or so and then it never would learn again. Lucky thing XBMC uses standard MCE remotes.

Thanks @xtermin8r.

Looks like I already had that command in my tree because I imported the XBMC commands that James wrote. I guess what I didn't realize is that when you use the "Activate Window Videos" command it basically goes into whatever view you were last in.

I was looking at a command that always went into the "Files" view of Videos.

If someone last viewed Videos and browsed to Music Videos per se, it would go back to that spot if you selected Videos again from the Home screen. I want to say "Browse Video Files" and have it always go the Videos -> Files view. Does that make sense?

Thanks,
Peter

XBMC (Old board see 'KODI' above) / How to Browse Video Files?

« on: April 15, 2013, 11:32:31 PM »

Trying to figure out if there is a parameter for XBMC to be able to 'Browse Video Files' or 'Activate window Video Files'. I like to browse by the native folder structure of my sources, since not all my content is categorized or structured to scrape correctly by XBMC. So instead of browsing by movie title, author, etc. I want to jump straight into the Videos Files list and navigate from there.

Any help appreciated.
