MCE Remote Color Button Keyboard Shortcuts

smajor · 2012-01-30, 01:06 AM

I'm probably not Googling the correct things. Can anyone tell me what are the keyboard shortcuts for the color buttons on the MCE remote? If some even exist, might as well tell me if NPVR will honor them too. :p

Alt-B, Alt-Y, Alt-R, Alt-G.

sub started saying that he didn't want things in NPVR depending on the color keys, but slowly they've crept in.

Yes, annoyingly I have added some functionality on these keys given the lack of other available keys. I have shamed myself...

*LOL*

Thanks all! If someone with magical wiki powers sees this, might it be added here as it's the first place I looked?

It's actually already there if you look. I believe Ctrl-r/y/b/g are the old keystrokes, and are still accepted as alternates.

I certainly did not make them alternatives in all my plugins. What caused the "Alt" change in the first place was the NextPVR change to use Ctrl-R as rewind.

@sub, add me to imilne's wish to have Alt-B change the View in the libraries. I add this in all my plugins with a View.

ok, I'm probably wrong about the ctrl- combos being alternatives to the alt- combos. I don't actually use the color keys myself, as my original remote didn't have them.

I think only ctrl-B and alt-B are equal. ISTR Sub saying that he kept ctrl-B for backwards compatibility.

ah, that's probably what lead to my mistake... I remembered ctrl-b and alt-b being equal, and applied it to all 4 of them.
