Media Center 12.0.240 and later support user defined keyboard shortcuts. These shortcuts can be made global so that they are available even with Media Center minimized.

Currently, defining these shortcuts requires working with XML in a text editor. Below we'll step through how to get them up and running.

Setup

You will need to create a file: C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center 12\Data\Custom Resources\Resource.xml

This file will be merged with the default keyboard shortcuts specified here: C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center 12\Data\Default Resources\Resource.xml

At the top of this file, you will see a description of how the file operates.

Commands

You can use any MCC (MC Command) in this file. They are described here: http://wiki.jrmediacenter.com/index.php/Media_Center_windows_messages

Sample
