[QUOTE="thetharparms, post: 511212, member: 98032"] Hi, Before I start, I'm not completely technically minded, much as I like to try to be! I run a pub and use a media server to drive music to my amp; I'm looking to have the info displayed on a screen behind the bar and MediaPortal seems perfect for this - lovely interface etc. However, controlling it seems fussy and it seems to hang a lot. I've searched around the forum looking for solutions but can't quite find something that works. I would like to use the media keys on my keyboard to play, stop, pause, next track etc., but cannot find a way of mapping them to work. Is there a simple way of navigating the interface from a keyboard and pausing/skipping tracks without constantly having to back-up to the list? Or is there a simple plug-in that I can install that doesn't require a degree in programming? Many thanks Mark.
