Its inconsistent because the player needs only Up/Down (try it) but this one 
needs Ctrl as well (ideally you'd want the same shortcuts everywhere). Remote 
control concept is simple, every action should be possible use arrow keys, 
enter, esc. I meant you can press Esc from the home screen to go to the player, 
and then Up/Down to control the volume.
