i noticed when i am listening to play playlist in xbmc (best program ever), there is no way to skip ahead a song, or go back a song. i added the following lines to my keymap.xml file and would like to share with others. it allow users to be able to change songs with two buttons presses (x, forward) when listening to a playlist.
<window>
<description>visualisation window</description>
<id>2006</id>
<action>
<description>next song</description>
<id>14</id>
<gamepad>dpadright</gamepad>
<keyboard>right</keyboard>
</action>
<action>
<description>previous song</description>
<id>15</id>
<gamepad>dpadleft</gamepad>
<keyboard>left</keyboard>
</action>
</window>
i hope this could be added to a future build.
i would also like to start a discussion on other features that could be added so that listening to music is easier. i have tried to bind keys to ff songs and rew songs, in the visualisation window but it seems really buggy.
