Saitek Eclipse 2 Media buttons, help!!

Hey guys, first post here so please be nice :rolleyes:

i recently purchased the mentioned keyboard yet upon launching i-tunes i've noticed the programme has to be selected for the media panel keys to respond. Therefore, when i launch a game the keys no longer work with i-tunes. It works with WMP but I'm not a big fan of WMP, I've heard of people installing plug ins to make it work but i haven't come across any online

Surely someone else uses this keyboard and i-tunes as their default music player.

Appreciate any advise

got the same keyboard and the exact same thing happens to me. its annoying as i too have to have it open to use the media controls with itunes. as you said wmp works fine. i dont have a fix for it as i tend not to listen to music when playing games. but your not the only one who has this problem

I have global hotkeys set in Winamp for it and that works fine.
