    I thought I read on this board that there was some software availible that could make the buttons on the front of the system work with other Media players.
    they work in WMP and Media Center, but they don't work in VLC, which is my primary MP. I was just wondering if there was a way to make them work.

    I doubt it. I know you can get the keys to work with Winamp and iTunes, but not sure about anything else.

    Is there any keyboard customization in VLC? I use BSPlayer as my primary media player and I can use those keys by changing them in the custom menu.

    So? What's the problem, customize the buttons and VOILA! (french, je!) It works on BSPlayer.
