bump.

Anyone with some experience on this matter?
I would really like to be able to use media keys without running Autohotkey,
since most games that use Punkbuster kick you for using Autohotkey.

Is it possible to program a stop/play on Poker PN layer? (my guess is no, but i have to ask).

Since you're using Windows, I'm not sure I can be of much help.
Poker II does allow for defining macros though. So if you can assign regular key-combos/bindings to the actions you want to perform, a macro might help you.

If you know Python or want to learn it, you might create some scripts that could perhaps be bound to custom keyboard shortcuts: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18112457/python-change-windows-7-master-volume

Good luck

Thanks for the input,
however I don't think I will be able to learn a programming code just to get media keys on Poker 2:)

Is there another software solution (that isn't banable like Autohotkey) in which i could get media keys working (stop/play, next/previous track).

  • Is it possible to program media keys (play/pause, next/previous track) on poker 2 program layer (similar to scripts you can do in autohotkey)?
Bumping this thread, because I recently got a Poker II and I don't want to use a program to do this (if I don't have to).

No, you can't program pause/start, next, previous since they are not present on any of the Poker II default layers. You can change or mute the volume, though.
