    I use Rhapsody and they do not work for it but when I play music in Media Monkey or videos in WMP they work just fine. Anyone have an idea how to make them work with Rhapsody. It is based off of Real if that matters.

    Thanks,

    Adam

    There are no real drivers for the buttons, and the buttons only pick up on certain players. The default player is windows media player. Sorry about it.

    You will need to go into the settings of Rhapsody. I have not used this player, but there should be an option to turn on shortcut buttons. You might have to program them, but it should work if the player has that option. :)

    Well it kind of is...as long as the program has the option to set-up the shortcut keys. You will have to program them yourself due to not all computers having them, so shortcuts are usually Ctrl+another key. :p
