42 Keyboard shortcuts for Media Center
Filed under: General VMC News;I personally don’t use the keyboard much on my Media Center machine. I don’t have a need. It sits next to the TV and runs…end of story. However, there may be times when using the keyboard will be faster or needed.
"Shahzad" at ITWel.com has posted a list in the forums that will be helpful if this need ever arises for you. Hop on over to the post if you maybe have some to add that aren’t listed.
A sample:
Video and DVD
Ctrl+E = Go to Videos
Ctrl+Shift+M = Go to the DVD menu
Ctrl+Shift+P = Play video/DVD
Ctrl+P = Pause video/DVD
Ctrl+F = Go to the next Chapter
Ctrl+B = Go to the previous Chapter
Ctrl+Shift+F = Fast-forward
Ctrl+Shift+S = Stop video/DVD
Ctrl+Shift+B = Rewind
Ctrl+Shift+A = Change the DVD audio
Ctrl+U = Change DVD subtitles
Arrow Keys = Change the DVD angleTelevision
Ctrl+T = Go to Live TV
