    Hey guys, is there any way to set up WinAmp to use the hotkeys on the top right of the keyboard on the m17xR2? (Previous, Play/pause, forward)?

    Tried searching google but all I find is "Hotkeys" plugin's for windows from like 2001. Not sure if they'd work.

    Thanks .

    Hi dude. there's a menu in the preferences in winamp called global hotkeys. It has two options that are by default off (unchecked). Check them both and you are set. No plugins necessary
