I have noticed with rc5 and rc6 the backspace keyboard command is no longer sent. This was very helpful to return to the beginning of long lists while using list views.. :confused:

    It is also very helpful if, when reporting problems, you post your logs.

    Ok, here's an example. In moving pictures I use list view and have 300+ movies. When browsing titles, hitting backspace always returned you to the beginning of the list. Now backspace does nothing. This function was very helpful with large libraries.

    It is not clear from mantis what was changed in the fix, but from your report, it was the default mapping.

    Solution - map this key to do what it used to do.

    Use Pos1 to go to the first item. That's the actual default key for it.
    Backspace going to the first item was a bug. You have mapped Backspace to Previous Menu action I asume.

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.

    Sadly, it seems that development of MP2 has come to a stop. Perhaps it will restart in the future. Meanwhile... MP1 has a "Tuning Details" panel that displays signal strength, signal quality, and picture resolution. It is updated in real time when viewing a channel: However, perhaps you are already aware of this, but prefer MP2...

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    Sorry, it's my fault -- I did not notice that you are using MP2. :( MP1 has a separate configuration utility, similar to "TV Server Config".
