Feature request: Bigger remote buttons

[un1versal]

Well, even though development seems to be slow, Ill ask for this.

The remote control part is fantastic but...Can you make

• Remote buttons be bigger (navigation stuffs)
• Ability to activate OSD (Press i since 2.0.10)
• Take screenshot of actual Kodi screen and maybe even auto upload it to some imageshare site

• Just the font size for the arrows? I can go to 125%
• The i (i in circle) button toggles the OSD for me
• Is this possible, link? I can't find it in the kodi api

Just the font size for the arrows? I can go to 125%

Or better, please some of us are getting on slightly and thin small buttons are hard to see click over, or if on a web browser on phone its impossibly small.

Is this possible, link? I can't find it in the kodi api

I think so, MilhouseVH does it in texturechache.py which is all json afaik, you probably cant find it on the api page because it hasnt been updated in ages so most things he does are not there.

Maybe you can gleam it from the entries.

https://github.com/MilhouseVH/texturecache.py/blob/master/texturecache.py#L7322 https://github.com/MilhouseVH/texturecache.py/blob/master/texturecache.py#L7383 https://github.com/MilhouseVH/texturecache.py/blob/master/texturecache.py#L7457 https://github.com/MilhouseVH/texturecache.py/blob/master/texturecache.py#L7800

or maybe @MilhouseVH can shed some light into this.

screenshot is listed as an Input.Action.

JSON screenshot:

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Input.ExecuteAction", "params": {"action": "screenshot"}, "id": 1}

There's also the built-in function TakeScreenshot.

jez500 commented 6 days ago The i (i in circle) button toggles the OSD for me

Not for me.

Clicking (i in circle) brings up

The OSD I mean is this one below which chorus cannot bring up, so you cant enable subtitles etc.

Having tested the 2.2.6 version, The screenshot feature in Lab works a treat, I wonder if this shouldn't be instead in the remote control part for easy access.

[jez500]

Yeah I just put it in Lab until have time to re-do the remote

[un1versal]

bringing up the correct OSD is now also fixed in 2.0.10 only missing is the bigger remote arrows, and middle button on the remote part in order to close this.

125% seems small, anything less than 180% for arrows and 28px for middle button is too small for old farts to find in these phone screens or a smaller browser window.
