Title: controlling volume with windows MCE remote
Post by: teddydov on June 10, 2008, 09:43:27 PM
Hello All,

Since I seem to be having issues getting the IR blaster working (saving that for another topic) - I wanted to know if there was any way to control the volume on LMCE without using a Gyro remote/mouse?
I am currently using the Windows Vista (black) remote control - it works great but I have no volume control at all.

thanks,
-Dov

Don't you press the little gray button on the right? right below the large right mouse button to access Lighting and Volume Levels? (equivalent of F8 on the keyboard)

not sure what this answer was?

in any case - even when I load the volume buttons up (using one of the colored buttons on my microsoft remote) I can't seem to move them without using a mouse.

Sorry, my mistake. You need keyboard controls for volume. doh! That I don't know, sorry!
