Yes the disc button or the small buttons on the right. No, the joystick won't work with this hack.


2. does it work for the book list part as well? with hundereds of books the book list now is 50+ pages, it will be great if it works there so finding a book will be faster
(note that in that section, the number button->% doesn't work, it jumps to the book instead, nor does the hold 5 sec->10 page turn, so it's a major pita, anything that helps to quicken the page jump will be great. or is it possible to turn off the number button->book, makes it 1%, 2% page jump etc just like inside book?)


great work and thx
It is possible to make a similar hack for the book menu, TOC, history and bookmarks. But then you will loose the numeric selection on a page. So let's say you type in "50" and you jump to page 50. Then on page 50 you have 10 choices. The way to select them is only possible with the up/down joystick. So it could be useful but only when you have 10+ pages with books.
