Hi forum,
can someone answer the below questions regarding remote key mapping for me please?
To start with, I have a Xbox 360 Media Remote (white version with illumination), that's this one:

Although the remote already works quite well in XBMC (in Openelec, that is), I'd like to understand how to change or add a few key assignments.
First, on key presses at the remote my XBMC.log gives lines like
Second, in keyboard.xml there is a related entry saying:
I understand that the "FastForward" command is one of the built-in commands of XBMC.
Question 1.): However, where (in a config file?) do I find the definition stating that the "KEY_FASTFORWARD" command sent by my remote actually is assigned to the <forward></forward> command of keyboard.xml?
Question 2.): Why is it that in the keyboard.xml file, the command FastForward can be used, instead of having to use PlayerControl(FastForward) as the above List of built-in functions seems to state as necessary syntax?
Question 3.): Additionally, how come that the command FastForward in the keyboard.xml does work at all, when the respective command in the list is not called FastForward but Forward instead?
Thanks heaps already for clearing this up for me,
Cheers David.P
