Re: some feedback for remote buddy

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
Hi Felix,

I just received my Keyspan Express Remote, and have started using the demo of Remote Buddy. 
I would like to second RB's request to make Remote Buddy a little bit more "media centric"... or more customising options beyond the profile root menu

Remote Buddy is a very deep program it seems and a bit overwhelming, when all I want to do is simple, dummy-proof stuff.

It took me a while to understand the phrase "activate behaviour" (it's not something you would find in a off the shelf dvd-player menu or television set) 
I would love to create a very simple menu with stuff like "play music" or "play dvd", that would automatically take me to the corresponding items. When choosing "play music" I might want to search through my artist library, without first having to activate a behaviour. 
Frontrow is a very nice example of this kind of simplicity. 
Ultimatly it would be nice if it felt more like a media system, where as now it still feels like a computer being controlled.

Another nice detail would be the possibility to have a full screen backdrop which hides the desktop and menu bar..this would certainly help a lot I think

Also, is there a possibility to turn off the button mapping display beside the "activate behaviour", I find it confusing and cluttering...
