Are there keyboard shortcuts for different modes in theater view? I use the mode almost exclusively and would like to program my ermte to get to each media type directly.

Thx

maybe you could use mmc commands. put for instance
mc12.exe /mcc 22001,3
under your remote to get to audio in theaterview.
mc12.exe /mcc 22001,2
for playing now.
mc12.exe /mcc 22001,4 for images
mc12.exe /mcc 22001,5 for video
mc12.exe /mcc 22001,1 for the start screen of Theater View


you can find the mcc commands here: http://wiki.jrmediacenter.com/index.php/Media_Center_Core_Commands
although this part is not well documented there. i will do later on.

I'm not sure how to launch a program with my remote - the config program only allows me to assign key combinations to each function.

It's an iMON PAD.

gappie,
Do you have to run the commands from a command prompt or is there some other way?

spoonyluv,
You can create a macro with your iMON software (iMON Manager>Settings>Macro Command). It provides a little onscreen keyboard that you have to use to enter the commands. I named my first macro "Audio" and then pressed the (WindowsKey+Rmc12.exe /mcc 22001, 3) on the onscreen keyboard. I mapped the macro to the My Music button on the iMON remote. When I had Theaterview open, the macro worked. However, when I went to Video and then pressed the key again, the Run command started but then it didn't finish. I think I need to add a delay after WindowsKey+R. By the way, WindowsKey+R is a shortcut for the Run console.

The Media Center Core Commands is great information. I can now use them to program macros for buttons to control MC no matter what other program is running. I'll probably just use it so that I have play/pause functionality even if MC does not have focus.

you could make for instance a bat file with one or more (open notepad and save as blahblah.bat). i run them using girder for my remote.
