Action when two buttons are depressed

[barbz]

Hi all,

I found this software last week and am hooked, it makes running xbmc so much easier and quicker thankyou!

One thing I hate about wireless keyboard and remotes is how easy it is to hit the shutdown button.

Is there any way to create a shutdown action where two buttons need to be pressed on a remote?

If not could this please be moved to feature requests.

Thanks
Paul

EG will usually capture the key you assign as an event and not let it pass on to the OS. So theoretically you should be able to assign the shutdown key to an action such as a comment and keep it from working. However my keyboards or remotes don't have a dedicated shutdown key so I'm not sure if you would be able to capture the keystroke and assign it before the computer shuts down.

If you want to use it as a two part shutdown process assign it to open a desktop remote and have it shutdown the computer or cancel. Shutdown is found in the action System/Power management.

Two buttons you can handle with exclusives like the state examples in the Example.xml.

But for such situations the "Jump if long press" action might be more elegant.
