Custom Live TV + Volume keymap.xml for Fire TV remote.

[psycon]

I have attached a custom keymap i made for kodi and the Fire TV (and any other) remote.

simply unzip the file and push it to keymaps with ADBfire using the "push remote" button. or use the file manager in Kodi to Copy it to Profile Dir/keymaps and restart kodi
Version 1
Up/Down lets you control the volume amplification - since kodi's regular volume up/down doesnt work on FTV
Left (Live TV) brings up slide out channel list.
Right (in Live TV) brings out full channel list
Menu (in live TV and on the homescreen) Shows the EPG
Back (in live video/TV) stops playback

Use This one on a fire tv box or generic android box View attachment 617
Use this one on the Fire tv stick View attachment 1330

Version 2 for Fire TV/stick
Left/right- Volume up and down
Up/Down (TV) - popup OSD channel list
FF/RW - Step back/forward
Menu (in live TV and on the homescreen) Shows the EPG

Use this for Fire TV box or stick (kodi 16 recccomended) View attachment 1333

Technically it should work for any device, not jsut fire TV. as long as the remote has up down left right, back and menu . (if missing any of those buttons it will still work, you just wont have that button of course)

updated a keymap.xml for the fire tv stick as it uses different key commands.

i guess you need to be rooted to push the file that far....
yo know if there is any plug in to do the job?

root not needed. use adbfire to push the file.. press the push remote button then locate one of my files, not the included ones..
