I am using VLC for MP3 playback, with a microsoft remote control, and/or with a logitech cordless trackball, + intelliremote software to control my remote interface. All this in Vista.
two issues would make life easier.
1. a skin which has bigger start, stop etc buttons or an option to enlarge the default one. ( I already have desktop large fonts enabled). this would make it easier to hit the correct edia control button from a distance with hte trackball.. Zoom hotkey has no effect if an audio track is playing.
2. window focus. If i call up a foler of mp3 tracks & play one with a double cleick then VLC becomes the active window which is what I want, bevause my remote intercace detects tht & runs a VLC profile.
but if I return to the folder of tracks , say with the trackball, & double click another one, while VLC is already aplaying , then focus stays with the folder, vlc does NOT become active window & my remote control profile for VLC does not kick in.
is any workaround possible for this ?
