- Several types of keyboards
- Mouse/trackpad buttons and functions.
- Hibernate, standby / sleep, lock, log off, restart, shutdown, but also control your monitor and loudspeakers.
- Media players like Windows Media Center (WMC) or Windows Media Player (WMP ), Winamp, Cyberlink Power DVD and Zune.
- Business tools like PowerPoint and Acrobat Reader.
The Developer, Tamal Basak is expanding both the support and the exension of the elements that can be controlled
