Title: Keep MC minimized/background during Pause/Play command
Post by: RedJ on August 01, 2016, 01:52:26 pm

I'm using a Microsoft Natural keyboard and assign the media key for Play Pause to a custom command

Code: [Select]

"...\J River\Media Center 22\Media Center 22.exe" /Pause
However, MC always jumps to foreground focus when the media key is pressed.  I use the command line option because the Windows system call will invert the play state of any media app that is running which will just change what is playing rather than the intended stoppage of content.  Is there a switch I can add to the command that will cause MC to remain minimized or in the background?

You need to call the C:\Windows\System32\MC22.exe executable, not the MC application.

Much better, thank you.
