Hey, script looks good, unfortunately, when I try and run it I get a missing mfc71.dll error. I have downloaded a copy and placed it in my system and system32 folders, but when I try and register the dll I get a LoadLibrary failed message

Any ideas? Or just the key codes for a Logitech LX710 :p

Thanks in advance

I'm having the same problem. Noone out there with any ideas? This dll/script seems like the only way to identify and map my fn & eject keys on my apple keyboard, and in accordace with murphy's law it doesn't work!

Hi

I was trying to use this script to map the keys of a remote control I bought with Windows MCE. I fact MCE doesn't allow me to use the media keys with media player classic, and I don't want to use WMP.

But when using the AutoHotkeyRemoteControlDLL.ahk I get an error: as soon as i select any device, I'm greeted by autohotkey telling me:

Hi,
this Script looks pretty useful to me. I tried it with my Cyberlink Remote which shows up as an HID. (Well, actually it show up as three HIDs in device manager.) And most of the buttons are detected nicely.
However, some buttons don't work yet. They are detected, but the script messes up, so hopefully somebody can help me with this.

If I use the Detect-Keys-Script for the enter-button or the number-buttons, then the button is detected, but in the appearing window the field that normally shows "AutoHotkey command to run" is missing. The saved "Keyboard Media Keys Actions.ahk" then looks like this:

Your code seems to be OK, but you don't seem to be using it correctly.
You should really take the time to read through the INSTRUCTIONS.txt file and the first few lines of the file "Keyboard Media Keys.ahk".

You need to run the "Keyboard Media Keys.ahk" file in order to make any of this work. If you just copied those 6 lines into your own script, then they will in fact do nothing at all. Try including your lines in "Keyboard Media Keys Actions.ahk" and run the main script, then your button should work like you want it to.

This gets me a bit closer... using the above advice, when I run the "Keyboard Media Keys.ahk" script I can see it's pulling in my subroutine from "Keyboard Media Keys Actions.ahk" because when I forgot to add the action like this:

4852: ; Eject
Return

it correctly warned me that no action was defined.

So I changed it to:

4852: ; Eject
send {Delete}
Return

now, the script starts up, no error, is silent BUT not only does the Eject fail to do anything, I also noticed that the AHK system tray icon does not appear though an Autohotkey process is visible in Task Manager 2nd tab..

Is this to do with the DLL file? Does it need to be in a special folder? Mine is in the same folder where I run the script from.

It is OK, that you don't see a tray icon. The script includes the line

[buglawton]

I put the test message in and could see the key is being detected... so I commented it out and uncommented my original send delete command... lo and behold it now works! Even the Ctrl-Alt-Delete key combo now works on XP using the Apple mini keyboard, using Eject ast the substitute key for Delete.

Cool!

And many thanks for the help.

I'm glad that I could be of help. If you need help including the script in your own custom one, let me know.

I tried to detect my Media: Mute (E0_20) button but it is not recognized.
What can I do?
