James Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Hey,I have just been searching for a way of using the extra keys on my keyboard. A small list of them:Play SoundStop SoundNext TrackPrevious TrackVol UpVol DownMuteRun CalculatorFavouritesRun BrowserI did a search for multimedia keyboard buttons etc but no luck. I found a Developer topic about Keyboard hooking, but it contained no script.Any ideas?Thanks,James Blog - Seriously epic web hosting - Twitter - GitHub - Cachet HQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DW1 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 A couple more things, first off this makes it easy to find the values: #include <misc.au3> While 1 sleep(10) For $i = 0 to 255 if (_IsPressed(Hex($i))) Then MsgBox(0, "", "You pressed the: " & Chr($i) & " Key!" & @CRLF & "Which would be polled with: _Ispressed(" & $i & ")") EndIf Next WEnd Second thing is, on my PC (i was making a script similar to yours) I ran into a problem with my keyboard calling default applications/actions for those media buttons (some of them anyway). To get around the defaults, I had to download the proper driver/soft for my keyboard, so that I could set the keys to do nothing... or (what I ended up doing)set a couple of them to just run a script (exe) you wrote. Good luck AutoIt3 Online Help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
