In reply to a question in the bug thread:
Hi,
is there any possibility to make the "Wireless Optical Desktop Elite"-Set (Keyboard and Mouse) from Microsoft work with Medie Center 10? The Media-Controls (Play/Pause, Stop, Next, Previus) are only working with Windows Media Player.
Regards,
Nick
I have the wireless Optical Desktop (not sure if it's Elite) and I just programmed all the keys myself using mjextman commands. This works perfectly. To do it just go to Control Panel> Keyboard and select the Key Settings Tab. Now select the relevant key e.g. Play then select the Edit button followed by 'Start a program, web page or file'. In the dialog type the following commands for the relevant buttons:
Media key:
mjextman.exe /PowerPlay / Pause key:
mjextman.exe /MCC 10000,0Stop key:
mjextman.exe /MCC 10002,0Prev Track key:
mjextman.exe /MCC 10004,0Next Track key:
mjextman.exe /MCC 10003,0I hope this was useful.
This is my first post for a while as I've been busy getting ready for Christmas and then recovering from too much beer. If you celebrate Christmas I hope you had a great time. If you don't but live in the western world I hope you enjoyed the time off work.
All the best to you all.
