Channel switching using mousewheel

Since I don't have a remote, it would be nice to use the mousewheel for changing programs (it would keep me from having to grab my keyboard all the time)

Girder will do the job for you. With its mouse plugin, you can configure it to send certain keystrokes when you spin that wheel... :wink:

Yes, but it's:
- not free
- an extra program which would be running all the time

It would be a small addition to MP, but a very usefull one.

I totally agree. But for now it's a workaround as there are no real alternatives. Maybe it's built in some time. If you are a programmer, you can get the sources and implement this feature. You can send it in, maybe it will be included then.
