XTV-SAF Slight change

Post by troydo »

SO i am using XTV-SAF on an old CRT, It works great and is reasonably readable, i have 2 questions:

1.) the text on the keyboard is weirdly offset so you cant read it (i have text set to big in the menu) can this be tweeked some how?
2.) The power menu is currently in the systems then power etc, can this be changed to be accessed of the home page?

If so can someone give me a nudge in teh direction of how please?

Thanks

1. Edit the DialogKeyboard.xml with notepad++ ou similar editor.
2. Press the right thumb to access the power menu.

I had been using the R thumb stick for quick access to the power menu. Is there an equivalent button on the Xbox remote that you know of?

Only if you edit the keymap.xml...

e.g.

Code: Select all

<keymap>
  <Home>
    <remote>
      <zero>XBMC.ActivateWindow(ShutdownMenu)</zero>

when you will have more option on one button you can open the commands scripts with it and you have all what it give on commands for xbmc on one button on your remote!

you can read a command from the script
you can add own commands
you can add one commands to another and all this easy set as default commands for you on one Button on your remote!

Is on my build on scripts a very nice tools i have it adapted for xbmc4xbox with the hope anywhere understand what for a nice tool this is!

In the final release version of xtv-saf that's on XAI you should be able to add "Exit" to the homepage. It can either be set to exit XBMC and load up an alternative dash or it can shutdown - you can change these settings in skin settings. Unfortunately though there is no option to bring up the shutdown menu.

I'm using xTV-SAF 1.0.0 for its minimalist nature (also better display on old CRT's). The Exit button on the home screen is set to shutdown only. Now I can bring up the power menu using the "zero" button (edited Keymap.xml above) for quick access to system info/restart/shutdown etc...excellent!
