Using Your Remote

Your remote works by sending keystrokes to media player program windows, simulating the keyboard "shortcuts" that you might otherwise use to control programs. Because of this, you should keep in mind that not every program will have a shortcut key that does what you want to do with your remote control. Some of the buttons on your remote just don't make sense for certain applications, so don't be surprised if some of your remote's buttons don't do anything in some applications.

IMPORTANT: Your remote always tries to control the foreground window. When you type with your keyboard, those keystrokes are routed to the window that you've selected with your mouse. Your remote works the same way—it sends button presses to the window that's in the "foreground". If the foreground window isn't recognized by your remote, the remote will try to find another window that does recognize remote control button-presses (see Settings: Advanced), but the best rule of thumb is to make sure that the window you want to control is on top of all windows and the window is selected.

Volume Control
IMPORTANT: The Volume and Mute buttons work the same way no matter what application you are controlling. When you use the Vol+ or Vol- buttons to control the volume of your PC audio, remember that this controls the Master Volume on your PC. Frequently, each media player program has its own individual volume setting. Make sure to set your application's volume to a reasonable level using your mouse, then you can simply use your PC Remote to control the volume at all times.

Tips

  • If you are using a program that does not make use of the Exit button, then pressing Exit will close the currently active application.
  • In most media programs, you can also use the Left/Right Navigation buttons to go to the previous track/next track.
