Hulu Desktop has a pretty cool seek. And it works great when I hold the keyboard right and left buttons down in order to seek. But on my remote with EventGhost, I have it set to send the right/left keys and autorepeat current macro 0.6. And this causes Hulu Desktop to not behave like I want to. It's getting the left/right keys sent over and over and just trying to seek 10 seconds in the video each time instead of kicking into its nice seeking feature.
So is there any way for me to tell EventGhost to hold down the left/right keys? Or is there a better solution for this?

Press and hold / Seeking in Hulu Desktop
Re: Press and hold / Seeking in Hulu Desktop
I found I had better autorepeat luck with Hulu if I changed the autorepeat settings from (0.6,0.3,3.0,0.01) to (0.6,0.3,0.6,0.01).
Hope that helps,

Re: Press and hold / Seeking in Hulu Desktop
Just create a python script. For fast forward:
import win32api
win32api.keybd_event(39,0,0,0)
for rewind:
import win32api
win32api.keybd_event(37,0,0,0)
This will start a fast scroll, if you are RW press the right arrow to stop the scroll and if you are FF then press the left arrow to stop. You can fine tune where you want to be using left/right arrows and press space bar (play) to resume. Hope this helps!
