[QUOTE="and-81, post: 244583, member: 11844"] You can do that. But you'll need to prevent Windows from automatically handling the arrow keys and other buttons that it does automatically, because they will always effect the in-focus window. That can be done with a registry modification that is described in the "You don't need the MCE Replacement Driver" post in my signature. Then you'll need to use a plugin that allows you to control MediaPortal even when it's not in focus... So something like the MCE Replacement Plugin would do that, or you could use the IR Server Suite if you want more complete control over the whole PC. I'd say try the MCE Replacement Plugin first because it is fairly simple. There is an option for "require focus" that you can change so that it acts on all buttons even when it's not focussed. Hope that helps, [/QUOTE]
