Hi, daniloco, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  :)

In the last days a new version of AIMP (version 4) has been released.
As you might guess, MPH does'nt work with it  :(
This time the process name is simply AIMP.exe, no version number added to the name.
Could you please add it to the list of supported players?

Ask, and ye shall receive.  ;)  Cheers.

v1.1.3 - 2016-02-29
    + Added support for AIMP4 (http://www.aimp.ru). ; (Thanks, daniloco)

Hello,
Is it possible to add MPC-BE to the list of supported players ?
If you can do that it will be very cool  :)

Sure.  I only seem to be able to find the 64-bit version (which I have working in MPH).  Is there a 32-bit version?

Yes, i've actually a 32-bit version because the video renderer im using is only available for MPC-BE in 32bit.

You can find the last 32-bit version here : https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpcbe/files/MPC-BE/Release%20builds/1.5.0/

Cheerio!

Stumbled across this program in search for my hotkey troubles.

Any chance of adding support for Plex Media Player? It has support for Media Keys, but needs the program to be in focus when pressing the buttons.

I'm pretty sure you're referring to the browser-based Plex Media Player, right?  If so, and in my experience, there really isn't a reliable way to control these types of players remotely the way that MPH works.  As an aside, I run a Plex server and love it's functionality.  :Thmbsup:

Hi,

Many thanks!

Haha, brilliant that you're using this aswell.

I'm actually referring to the Plex Media Player Windows App. It appears that this has the same "struggles" as other softwares here (media buttons work when the program is in focus, but not in the background). I prefer using the app to avoid transcoding as much as possible :)

Hello,
thank you very much for this project, it's just great!

Would it be possible to add the pandora open source client Elpis ( https://github.com/adammhaile/Elpis ) to the list of the supported programs?
At the moment I'm somewhat able to control it trough MPH when spotify is opened paused in the backgroung but being able to control it in a proper way would be awesome.

Thank you very much and keep up the great work!
