Would be a Skin-related issue. Skins get the key description by color 
name, though the order of the parameters suggest the RGYB order. 
However, a skin should be free to display them in a different order.

For example, messing with cSkinSTTNGDisplayMenu::SetButtons should do 
the trick if you re-order the referenced color names in the 
osd->DrawText calls.

Another way that wouldn't require recompiling is to modify the theme 
color, so that for example the 'Red' button will be shown as Green in 
the menus. As long as you know that any manual referring to 'Red' 
actually means 'Green' on the display and 'Green' on the remote.


Cheers,

Udo

Take a screwdriver, open the remote and switch the buttons :)

I thought the colors and the order are all the same... Another thing to
worry about when buying a remote!

Hi!
Related question..  Is it possible to change order of those colors (what 
represent color-keys) at screen?
Because my remote have those colors, but two of those are in different 
order...

The recordings menu calls external commands from reccmds.conf with the 
number keys, and has commands on the color keys.

The channels menu can pick channels by entering their number, and has 
commands on the color keys.

Good point.

Yeah, that are my thoughts as well. I just look on the latest products of
logitech and see that there are no color buttons.

I've got a related problem with one of my remotes; the colour keys
double up as rec, play, pause and stop.

You can map any function to any key you want.  One example of numbers
& colors being used in the same menu is the main menu itself.  Numbers
take you straight to sub-menus or plugins while the color keys perform
functions like start recording or change the audio pid.

My advice, just buy a remote with the color keys and save yourself some hassle!
