I've been using MP for about a month now so before I start making changes towards messing with StreamedMP configuration I wanted to finish with working out the kinks on the remote.

So far I've been using my Logitech 880 as iMon PAD, whereas from all the threads I read most people use it as MCE remote.
I found on this forum .imo files both for iMon PAD and MCE configuratons.
I find iMon configuration to be too jittery, for instance when I press ok to select a directory 60%+ of the times it detects it as double click so it enters a directory and immediately it goes back one level up.
Also I set up one button to act as a right mouse click, and whereas it brings up the menu, when watching a video let's say, sometimes it enters a loop until you press another button.

When I switch it to MCE remote mode using buttons is much smoother, however I can't set up some simple functions.

For instance what is the button used (if you use the remote as MCE remote) to bring up the menu while playing a video so you can turn on/off subtitles for instance, or while watching TV to bring up TV Guide???
So it would serve the same function as right mouse click.

Help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

    Those are the coloured teletext button, yellow is subtitles, red switches to fullscreen video, blue cycles through zoom modes and never can remember what green does :)

    This is the screen I am talking about...

    That's the menu I need to bring up...colored buttons don't do anything unfortunately...
    I just need to know what's the name of the function...I can easily configure the button for it then...

    I mapped a right mouse button in iMon (Mouse Command screen) to an unused MCE command, which is somewhat of a solution.
    It works fine if mouse pointer is not on a specific file.

    During watching a video or TV it works fine, but when you try to pull up the menu to delete a file above mentioned condition applies.
