[QUOTE="yoavain, post: 811271, member: 92067"] I think there should be an option to configure some other remote control buttons to trigger the MP Tray to do tasks when MP is not running. For example, I would like an option to switch to a different monitor (but I guess making the tasks configurable is better). I'm running MP on a PC with 2 monitors. Every time I go to the living room to start MP with the remote, I first need to switch displays. (I also use MP on the other monitor when programming and debugging) At first, I used WIN+P. Then I found out there are switches that can be used with its executable [I][B]DisplaySwitch.exe[/B][/I] (under system32 folder). [CODE]Switches to External or "Projector" Display Immediately [B][I]DisplaySwitch.exe /external[/I][/B] Switches to "Computer only" Display Immediately [B][I]DisplaySwitch.exe /internal[/I][/B] Switches to "Duplicate" Display Immediately [B][I]DisplaySwitch.exe /clone[/I][/B] Switches to "Extend" Display Immediately [B][I]DisplaySwitch.exe /extend[/I][/B][/CODE] So I created scripts, but still I need to use the keyboard before using the remote. Anyone else would like to see this feature? :thx: Edit: Well, took me a couple of minutes but managed to do it myself. Code of mediaportal\MPTray\program.cs in the next post. No patch file, since I'm still not a GIT pro. I'll be glad if someone help me create a patch and submit it properly... Would appreciate if someone from the development team contact me regarding this. :thx: [/QUOTE]
