G-Series Gaming Keyboards

[DavidB80]

Hello,

I am wondering how I can get my media keys on my Logitech G15 Rev. 2 to work with Spotify. None of the media keys are working, I really wish they did. Does anyone have a solution? I would appreciate any help!

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 if that matters.

Thank you,

David

I have the same problem, and the only thing that I found is this app for seen what spotify song is playing http://www.paulridgway.co.uk/spotify-s15/

But I don't find anything else for the controls

SOLUTION: In windows go to start / config / Windows sideshow disable windows sideshow for media player.

This will disable a background service for windows media player. After this mediakeys will react to spotify like desired.

Hope it helped more people. Because i've browsed the internet for hours.

[System tested on]

Windows 7 x64 / x32

With logitech g15

Spotify 0.6.4.0xx

might also work on other devices / systems

Please comment if this worked for you with your os / keyboard etc.

Hey,  I was curious what you ment when you said start then config. Do you mean the windows button? I can't belive you can actually get Spotify to work with the buttons!

What I did is press Start (yes windows button) and then searched "Windows SideShow" and first thing that came up was the Windows SideShow. Then in the window there will be under Gadgets "Windows Media Player" and near it will be check boxes for "Logitech GamePanel Devices (Mono)" and "Logitech GamePanel Devices (QVGA)". Uncheck both boxes and restart computer. Should work!
