How do I control Zoom Player using a Remote Control?

There are a few methods to get this done:

  1. Have your remote device send fake keyboard keys to Zoom Player.
  2. A more sophisticated method, is to let your remote software interface with Zoom Player on the Windows Message level (the most reliable way).
  3. Another way, which I recommend best- Zoom Player can export the currently loaded keyboard file into a Girder supported file format. How to do this is best described in the Zoom Player Girder Setup article.


You may also want to look at the "default.key" file in the Zoom Player directory for additional insights.
