Hi!

i'm really disappointed! Today i got the HTC W100 Remote Control. I tought, now i can take my Orbit in my bag and control my MP3 Player with the shortcuts of the W100!
BUT
The W100 has a big disadvantage!
it seems just to be compatible with the WMP! But this player isn't really comfortable if you take your Orbit in a bag, because the Touchscreen is alway on!

Mortplayer (a really good MP3-Player) doesn't recognize the shortcuts of the W100. So you can't use the shortcuts of the W100 for any funktion for the Mortplayer. If you push any button of the W100, the WMP starts automaticly.

Is there any solution:
- to lock the screen of the WMP very easy
or
- to use thr W100 for the MortPlayer or any other Musikplayer, that has a simple Sceen-Lock funktion!?

Goto WMP - Options - Buttons - define a key for toggle screen
allows you to switch of the screen but keep WMP working

I've no idea how this works with ur W100

I couldn't find anything in the registry that allowed you to change the default player. I suspect the references are hard coded into the dll. Sent mine back after two days of screwing with it to no avail.
