Media Player global hot keys

December 09
by milo 9. December 2009 13:38

Started getting annoyed with having to find media player in my task bar, then open it, then click on pause (or hot ctrl+p). Secondly I don’t have a media keyboard, just my Dell low footprint.

I found a nifty plugin which exposes hotkeys not matter what application your in..

http://wmpkeys.sourceforge.net/

Install then enable the plugin within WMP, then the following are available: -

Ctrl + Alt + home = play/pause
Ctrl + Alt + right = next
Ctrl + Alt + left = previous
Ctrl + Alt + up = volume up
Ctrl + Alt + down = volume down
Ctrl + Alt + f = fast forward
Ctrl + Alt + b = fast rewind
Ctrl + Alt + [1-5] = rate track

Awesome

This caught me out when updating my Ajax versions. You might notice your MStest will all stop working with this error (above).

FIX, Navigate to the DLL, and right-click properties.

And unblock.

BT are ****

October 15
by milo 15. October 2009 13:52

I’m totally fed up with BT. First off they miss-sold me a business line (which they admit to doing and apologised) then charge me 24 months of business broadband and telephone services (over £300). In which many calls later they agreed were incorrect. However they didn’t null the amount in the account, and sent my account to a debt collection agency.

Each time I call Its a 40 minute call. Each time they tell me its all sorted and resolved, and still I get threatening letters about court action.. blah blah blah.

I’ve spoken to customer complaints, customer services, billing enquires all say the same thing, “all sorted Mr Hart”, then 1 week later, after I think its all put to bed, another threatening letter.

I’ll keep this posted.

UPDATE:

BT just text’d me this morning, and they have cancelled my account, even though I receive a bill two days ago for £230 and change. I contacted BT business and confirmed the account is zero.
