Hey, a few days I changed my F3 for one Ustym 4K S2. I have noticed that the recall button has no function assigned and changed with the Exit button. I have tried to modify the behavior in (menu - setup - system - expert settingss - hotkey) but to no avail.

 

I have read that there is a map.xml file but I am not sure I know what I am manipulating. Can someone tell me how to exchange the actions assigned to Exit and Recall, and give Exit the action to exit?

 

Thanks in advance.

You can try create there in /usr/share/enigma2 file keytranslation.xml with content

<keymap>
	<translate>
		<device name="dreambox advanced remote control (native)">
			<key from="KEY_BACK" to="KEY_EXIT"/>
		</device>
	</translate>
</keymap>

and change parts from and to how you need, you can add more lines.

You must to know, what KEY_code is under "recall" button.

It is perhaps the most difficult task. 

 

Thanks.

Maybe would be useful for developers, the image for uclan in /usr/share/enigma2/rc_models has swapped buttons.

 

 

Physical remote control:

Interesting, I have the top one.

I have the bottom one... but I have not problem with it...

[LukeSky]

I have tried using the keytranslation.xml file, then restart enigma and sbt, and no result was produced.

My fault ... change line with remote type to:

<device name="dreambox advanced remote control">

 = without  (native)

Great, I just need to correctly assign the exit action to the exit button.

 

Now my question is: Every time I install a new version will I have to manually change this file or is it saved in the backup and restored automatically?

 

Thank'u so much.

It should be in /etc/enigma2, and then yes, it will be in the autobackup. /usr/share is a system directory, nothing should be installed there by the end user.

@WanWizard - this file is placed in /usr/share/enigma2/keytranslation.xml   (it is set in code here and change path due backward compatibility will not be ok)

 

@LukeSky - There in AutoBackup plugin you can select this file for backup/restore.

I see that there are solutions for everything but the configuration is complicated. It would be great if you could choose two configurations for the controls from the OpenPli image, for end users perhaps this type of situation becomes somewhat complicated.

Then that code needs changing. Users should not have to place files in /usr. it is a system directory.

@Wanwizard - It is not standard config file ( btw - file does not exist standardly ) and then manual adding to Autobackup is ok for me... but it could be done as

	keytranslation = eEnv.resolve("${sysconfdir}/enigma2/keytranslation.xml")
	if not os.path.exists(keytranslation):
		keytranslation = eEnv.resolve("${datadir}/enigma2/keytranslation.xml")
	config.usage.keytrans = ConfigText(default=keytranslation)

for backward compatibility .... PR exists yet
