Whenever I need to find keybindings, I resort to database searches:<br>
<br>
MariaDB [mythconverg]> select * from keybindings where<br>
hostname='mypvr' and description like '%pause%';<br>
+-------------+------------+----------------------------------------------------------+---------+----------+<br>
| context | action | description | keylist | hostname |<br>
+-------------+------------+----------------------------------------------------------+---------+----------+<br>
| TV Playback | PAUSE | Pause | P | mypvr |<br>
| TV Playback | FFWDSTICKY | Fast Forward (Sticky) or Forward one second while paused | >,. | mypvr |<br>
| TV Playback | RWNDSTICKY | Rewind (Sticky) or Rewind one second while paused | ,,< | mypvr |<br>
| Music | PAUSE | Pause/Start playback | P | mypvr |<br>
| Weather | PAUSE | Pause current page | P | mypvr |<br>
+-------------+------------+----------------------------------------------------------+---------+----------+<br>
5 rows in set (0.01 sec)<br>
<br>
The p key for pause is used in the "TV Playback" and "Music" contexts<br>
- if you change it in one, you probably should change it in both. I<br>
ignore "Weather" as I do not have it installed. Do not forget to also<br>
search the jumppoints table when looking for keybindings:<br>
<br>
MariaDB [mythconverg]> select * from jumppoints where hostname='mypvr'<br>
and description like '%pause%';<br>
Empty set (0.00 sec)<br>
<br>
I would not have thought there was any problem with XFCE and the p key<br>
though - so I obviously am missing something about how your RF remote<br>
works.<br></blockquote><div>I'm pretty sure my remote's pause/play button is being trapped by the Desktop environment because I can define another unused remote button to the TV Playback 'pause' function in Edit Keys and that works.</div><div><br></div><div>I could always put stickers on the remote buttons LOL</div><div> </div></div></div>
