Hi everyone, I am trying to capture a NumPad direction key-press and send out a normal arrow key-press in its place. These are the numpad keys that register when numlock is OFF (2, 4, 6, 8). I am currently using the _IsPressed Function but there is no HexKey for these buttons, only for the numerical numpad keys. Is there another way I can do this? Aaron

Hi everyone, first post! First off, I dont have any coding experience. I have just kinda been searching the help file until i find what im looking for. It has worked pretty good up until now. Heres what im trying to do: I have a windows 7 Media Center dedicated machine in my living room. I need to switch the resolution to 720x480 when the process HuluDesktop.exe is running (slow machine ), and switch back to 1280x720 when it is not. Here is what I have written: It was meant to run at startup and remain a background process at all times. ; $Res is 720 if 720p and 480 if 480p $Res=Int(720) Sleep(60000); wait for windows media center to start Do if ProcessExists( "HuluDesktop.exe") And $Res=720 then ;if hulu is running and screen resolution is 720p then send("^!4") ;change resolution to 480p via hotkey $Res=Int(480) ;and make $Res reflect 480p EndIf If ProcessExists("HuluDesktop.exe")=0 and $Res=480 Then ;if hulu isnt running and screen resolution is 480p then send("^!7") ;change resolution to 720p via hotkey $Res=Int(720) ;and make $Res reflect 720p EndIf Until ProcessExists("ehshell.exe") ;windows media center process So, it works great. But Hulu Desktop stutters nonstop because this script is eating up all of my CPU (99%). If i put a sleep command in the loop it is better, but it still stutters everytime the loop runs again and the CPU useage jumps up to 100%. Do you guys know of a better way to do this?
