    Hi, I'm new to the forums and have tried searching for an answer, but I can't seem to find it. Does anybody know if it is possible to make the media direct buttons on the front of the M1210 pulse to the beat of a song using Winamp or WMP? Thanks in advance.

    It may be possible if you swap the power lead from the led lights for the buttons and solder them directly to the speakers in front (that being said if you use the laptops speakers). If you use external speakers or headphones this wont work and i dunno how that would work being connected to the sound card.

    I dont even know if you could draw enough power from speakers in the laptop that would power the led lights, but those are just my thoughts.

    Give people more than 20 minutes to answer your question. User forums don't necessarily give immediate answers.

    And to answer your question, no they will not pulse to music.
