Title: front end Shell and volume control? *solved*
Post by: Bender on May 19, 2009, 01:02:09 am

I'm using Maximus as my shell and I want to use the media keys from my computer to control the volume in the FE

problem is the buttons don't work unless windows explorer is running

is there a program I can set to launch when the Shell launches that will let the media control buttons work? besides explorer of course

Thanks for any help!
