Remote and Windows Shortcuts

blast · 2006-09-10, 07:01

I'm using this remote control with MP, and it's been working just great. I bought it from Ebay and I think it's a MCE2005... however, I'm trying to find out if the remote buttons work on Windows screens (i.e Desktop, Windows Explorer, ...) for some shortcuts like Tab, Enter, Alt-F4, teletext (the number buttons always come out as numbers)... or if there's a way to config these buttons on the remote to work for those shortcuts on Windows?

Thanks

Not without the help of external applications (HIP, Girder), but they need a modified driver. Search the forums or ask google.
