📋 Summary
Enable users to assign custom keyboard shortcuts to immediately open a specific Platform or Playlist in Big Box and LaunchBox.
🎯 Feature Overview
Currently, Big Box allows general navigation via keyboard or controller input, but does not support direct access to specific Platforms or Playlists through configurable hotkeys. This feature request proposes:
The ability to assign a global keyboard shortcut to any Platform or Playlist
Pressing the shortcut in Big Box exits the current menu and instantly navigates to the corresponding Platform or Playlist
Each platform’s shortcut could be managed in LaunchBox under “Edit Platform/Playlist → Details → Shortcut”
📦 Benefits
Enables faster access to favorite collections without manual navigation (e.g. a “GameCube” button)
Opens the door for external automation (I intend to use a NFC scanner to load a particular playlist: e.g. tapping a Kirby amiibo on the scanner pulls up my Kirby playlist by calling a keyboard shortcut)
Improves accessibility and usability for users with large libraries
