FYI to map the Scanner plugin to the play.hold function, the file to
edit is Default.map in SqueezeCenter/server/IR/
The line should read:
play.hold = modefunction_Plugins::Scanner::Plugin->jumptoscanner

The plugin uses the generic INPUT.Bar mode which provides details on
how it has left (in case your plugin wishes to act on that information)
In general exit LEFT moves one leve
Works a treat, so now Play doesn't exit. What's the difference between
the LEFT and RIGHT exit? RIGHT always seems to take you back to where
you came from, LEFT to the MENU page before that one which is a little
confusing? I think I'd make LEFT behave the same as RIGHT?

Give this a try. It wasn't a huge change, so ported to 6.5. I don't
run that version any more so it's untested.
You will need to change your mapping to:
play.hold = modefunction_PLUGIN.Scanner->jumptoscanner
It works in 7.0, but there are naming conventions that are different,

No. To exit the scanner back to the current playing track, press Now Playing.

Do any of these plugins use the Transporter's knob as a way to move the

For 7.0, you would need to use use:
play.hold = menu_Plugins::Scanner::Plugin
However, there is no version of the plugin for SC7 yet.
If you are using 6.5 then the mapping you have should work, I'm not
seeing anything that suggests you have the plugin working correctly by
navigating directly t

You need to ask Kdf - he wrote the plugin and is using SC7.0.

Maybe this helps: http://oinkzwurgl.org/skipper
It's not perfect, but it suits my needs (to skip backwards in podcasts
a couple of seconds).
Maybe some plugins wizard could make it work smoother. E.g. I actually
only want the key bindings active while on the "Now Playing" screen.
