Hmm maybe you guys can configure your keyboard media keys with your keyboard software? They need to trigger a keypress code # when the Test eJukebox exe has focus or I will not be able to add support. Disable your media keys from controling WMP if you can. You just want them controlling eJukebox which will handle wmp and winamp. Also if you can specifically configure your media keys...the standard media key codes currently supported by eJukebox (even when minimized) are:
|>||: 179
0: 178
<<: 177
>>: 176

If you are using a Logitech keyboard and the code # for the media keypress is not showing with the test ejukebox.exe there is a solution. A file called default.xml in the SetPoint folder (usually c:program filesLogitechSetPoint) the other one is user.xml and you will find it on (C:Documents and SettingsuserApplication DataLogitechSetPoint). You will find something like this in the default.xml file: (Something similar in the user.xml file)

<!-- Button Name => MEDIA PLAYER
<Button Number="786819" Name="Media Player">
<PARAM Type="HOTKEY" IconLoc="media"/>
<Trigger Class="ButtonPress">
<PARAM Button="786819" LastButtonPress="0" Silent="0" FireUsageInterval="0"/>
<TriggerState Name="ButtonDownUp" HandlerSet="MediaPlayer" HandlerSetGroup="HotKeysMediaGroup"/>
</Trigger>
</Button>

Just add a comment tag start before this line (ej. <!-- start comment)
and a end comment tag after the </button> tag on the last line ( end comment --> )

Comment out each of the play/pause, stop, next, prev

After you restart the SetPoint software does button definitions you commented will have no functionality in setpoint sw but their scan codes will now actually be sent directly to windows and eJukebox!

OK so if you still can't configure your keyboard to get the code # in the test eJukebox then uninstalling your keyboard software will probably do the trick. One drawback to that is your green display notifications will no longer show up.
