Title: Real player and a media keyboard
Post by: Netham45 on January 04, 2007, 07:00:00 pm
I have a media keyboard(one with the play, next, last, stop, pause, voulme, internet, e-mail, webpage forward and back, and home page in your internet browser) buttons on top. It works with Windows Media Player, but I don't like that. It is too much of a memory and CPU hog, so I use Real Player, which these special buttons don't work with. Would anyone know a program or plugin or whatever that I can use these buttons with Real Player on?


Also, if there are command lines for play/pause, stop, next, and last, I could use those.


Edit:Problem Solved:Using WinAmp now. Though realplayer is still better....

Wait... you use REAL PLAYER??!?!!? kill it now before you regret it. Wipe it from your hard drive and then rub magnets all over the drive it was on to make sure it's completely erased. In fact it might be a good idea to burn the entire computer.

winamp is infinitely better for music and VLC for movies.

EDIT: wait we have lots of good smileys for real player. :Dbiggrin.gif

go go iTunes! -_- nah, iTunes is just obligatory since I have a 'pod.

For music, I use iTunes, it's sufficient for that.
For movies, VLC beat's em all.

Yep . itunes for music, VLC for videos. I guess WMP for rest, but you can use real player.
