Does anyone know if there is a hotkey that can do this, it's very annoying to be able to start PowerDVD with a remote but I can't navigate between videos, music, blu ray etc.?

I use LM Remote Keymap and engage "Mouse Mode" to navigate with my IR remote, it's clumsy but it works.

Your other option might be to run in Cinema Mode as Opposed to Classic Mode. I don't, I use Classic Mode because annoyingly in Cinema Mode the Audio Delay function is not available and appears not to work but that's another story.

Thanks for your reply. It seems kind of mad that there is no hotkey for such a vital browsing function. Cinema Mode seems a possible fix, but is there a way to get PowerDVD to start in that as default?

UPDATE 1: Argh, OK now it starts as default in Cinema if I click the shortcut but if I start it in my iMON Remote application starter, it doesn't .

UPDATE 2: OKKK if I add PDVDLP.exe as an application in the iMON application launcher that gives me Cinema mode, thanks !!

I'm pretty sure it remembers the last mode you used after you close it. So just switch to Cinema Mode and don't switch back unless you need to change some of the more advanced settings that Classic Mode provides.

It didn't for some reason, but if I launch PDVDLP.exe that gives Cinema mode .

Actually it didn't work ! The remote commands didn't work, I needed to add PDVDCinema.exe (in the Movie > PowerDVD Cinema subfolders) as the program to launch & setup my remote for, works great now though .
