Hey All...

After a few hours of researching, all I could find was the pre VLC v1.0.0 hook code for SetPoint...
Then I found this German site with a bunch of info I couldn't read. After a few more searches I located the new wndClass, 'QWidget'...
And here is new functional code to allow support for the media buttons for Logitech SetPoint v4.60.122 [Play/Pause, Stop, Previous, Next]...
I hope this helps some one out and if this has already been posted I apologize in advance...

Code: Select all

[Players]
VLC=key,vlc.exe,QWidget,VLC media player,xxx, , ,S,P,N,0,1,VLC

PS. Keep up the great work on VLC... Its one hell of a mighty media app...

I thought I would post my complete 'players.ini' here to help out...

Logitech SetPoint - Complete 'players.ini' with support for VLC v1.0.0...

I am running Setpoint Control Center ver. 4.80.103 (and driver 4.80.11) with VLC 1.0.5 Goldeneye. My Players.INI file is below. The play/pause, stop, fwd and rev buttons work, but only when VLC has focus. If another app has focus, the buttons do nothing. This not the way it is supposed to work. Back when I used RealPlayer

as my favored media player, the buttons would work regardless of what app had focus. The Windows volume setting responds to the vol+ / vol- buttons and it *never* has focus.

Since I have no idea what any of these settings mean, it's hard to troubleshoot. Logitech doesn't document the Players.INI settings worth a darn. I'm really at a loss.

I prefer to use VLC to listen to podcasts while I work, so another app is always on top of VLC. When the phone rings, I need to stop my podcast (not just mute the sound), so I can resume listening after I hang up. I appreciate that this is NOT a VLC problem, but I hope that someone here can help nevertheless.

I found this thread:

QUERY: Just a quick one here! I'm using VLC media player (the version 9 one) to stream a playlist of online radio stations whilst I play a game (Test Drive Unlimited). I've found that the default hotkeys for VLC will only work when the program is the foremost one so when I'm playing TDU, the hotkeys for volume have no effect and I have to ALT+TAB out of the game to change any settings.
Is there any type of script that would allow me to use to hotkeys for VLC whilst I'm inside another application?

RESPONSE: You need to use ControlSend in order to send messages to windows and window controls that aren't active.

on the forum which supports AutoHotKey. I suspect that there is at least a clue, and maybe the answer here, but it's over my head.
