Rate Song Currently Playing from Another Application
« on: May 10, 2010, 09:06:43 pm »

Hi there,

It's possible to rate a song from 0 to 5 using Control+Shift+0 to 5 but not if you're in a separate application.
It would be great if MC could have an option to supersede other application's for the control+shift combination (or mabye alt+control+shift or anyting custom set by the user in the Resource.xml file).

It's a total waste of time that we have to switch to Media Center to rate the track currently playing.

Do you guys have any idea how this could be done? Maybe using a software to create Windows macros?

Cheers,
Melkiades

p.s.: iTunes totally sucks, why are we the only people aware of this?

HI Melkiades
Yes it's totally possible :D
in fact u can set whatever custom keys shortcuts and set them global or no (global mean they have the exclusivity on other application)
