Setting up custom keys for Media Engine is no problem with a USB keyboard; but yesterday I found a mini USB Game controller and I thought it would be much more convenient to use for changing songs then a full size keyboard.

But when the config utility askes me to press a button, it does not recognize
any of the buttons that I press on the gamepad, but it works fine with my USB keyboard.

Is there a reason why Media Engine can "see" the buttons that are pressed on the USB keypoard and not on the gamepad?

After several hours of searching on google I found a program called "joy2key" or "joytokey". You map the joystick buttons to keyboard keys and it runs in the background.

If anyone will be interested I can post pictures.
