Title: MC9.1 and Logitech Cordless keyboard
Post by: crowfan on August 21, 2003, 07:27:14 am

Hey all

I recently picked up the Logitech Cordless MX duo (keyboard and mouse) and I like it a lot.

But the Media Controls on the keyboard do not work well with MC. When I press the Media key (to launch my media player) MusicMatch launches (you can imagine the horrified look on my face)..and when I tried to change this setting, MC was not an option listed in the window for the keyboard settings. Also, when I have MC open and I'm playing a song, and I press the Play/Pause key on the keyboard, it will pause the song in MC, but it will also launch MMJB again. Argh...

I know that this may be a problem with the keyboard and not with MC. I guess I'm curious whether MC needs to become compatible with the keyboard, or vice versa. I don't know that much about how this stuff works. If it's got nothing to MC and I am just taking up space on the boards, just tell me to go away  :)

Thanks

I've found that sometimes that's the quickest way to an answer, ask for help and the answer comes to you while you are asking....

Sorry to ask this .. I know everyone has their keyboard working ... I know I do ..
but does everyone's MC popup when you press Play/Pause ?

Mine does.  It always launches the media player that you last selected with the Media button.
