Keyboard - DVD contols

[ThinkCentre]

As my first test of LinuxMCE, I put a DVD into the drive. It worked straight away which is good but the only control I have is by right clicking the mouse, which gives me a mute button and a play/pause button. Without a separate orbiter or MCE remote, how do i use other controls (ff, rew, subtitles, volume, EXIT!). I can't even stop the DVD and pressing the button on the front of the drive has no effect

::At least using the eject command means I don't have to keep watching this terrible movie!

The same applies for TV. If I left click I get Mute and Pause/Play but nothing else.

Quick reference:

F6 = Media Key, FF/REW jog shuttle with mouse, as well as chapter up/down
F7 = Menu key
F8 = Volume/Ambience.. Vol left/right, lights up/down.

Perfect! Thanks heaps!! I'm dying to get a remote control now or at least try to configure the HDhomerun to accept control signals.

I've set MythTV to "commercial flag new recordings", is there a control to skip to the flag after the commercials? If i press the right button it seems to skip a set 30 seconds or so.

You should either install the Orbiter software on a windows machine, on a Nokia N800/N810/N900, or install the Web Orbiter, and use that as your control.
