    But we can only dream.
    +1000 to that!
    It would be fantastic if we could map the coloured buttons on the EPG to do different things! IMDB search is not going to be used by 90% of people, but page up/down or recordings is! which brings me to.....

    I agree with the channel up and down button to page up and down, would be great if that could be implemented.

    It has not actually been coded, that image is just a visual representation of what he wanted to achieve.

    Ah I see, well would remapping the colour buttons to something more useful be possible in future?

    I think the jist of 2 of your points is an ability to change what the colour buttons do. That, I think a lot of people here agree with. "view recordings" or "page down" is much more useful than "IMDB search"

    They don't need to have a set function, they should be customizable to any function the user feels suits their needs. I have red button set to bring up bouquet, chnl + & chnl- page up and down. (Using CoolTVGuide until Vix can hopefully implement this)

    That's exactly what I mean! I'm surprised this isn't an option already!

    I thought i'd bump this thread again to hopefully get it noticed, as remapping the colour buttons on the EPG would be a great future feature!

    I have managed to change what the colour buttons do but currently I just remapped them to other existing things in the epg such as make colored buttons (yellow and blue) +/- 24hrs so I can free up the channel +/- buttons to do something else - hopefully page up/down if I get the time. The way I did it was by editting the python files on the box and not through the skin files. This way the buttons can display the correct label as well.

    Yes, I also think it's a good idea. I would like to do what @matt007 has done and use two of the coloured buttons when viewing the EPG to be used for the +/- 24hrs instead of having to use channel +/-.

    @Matt007, is it easy to re-map green and yellow buttons whilst viewing the EPG to be used for +24 hrs and -24 hrs respectively?

    Is there anyway to also then re-map channel +/- to page up/down instead?
