I got a Zune a couple of weeks ago and the software has been working great, but I'm just wondering if there's a way to control the software with the physical Zune? Thanks

Control the software via the Zune hardware?
I do not believe you can.
What do you mean by 'control'?
Also, hell yeah Zune

Yeah, the Zune can't interact with the software in any way like that.
Since the software is basically Windows Media Player, try buying a remote or a keyboard with those controls.

thanks anyways etchasketchclock

fuck you ipodclock

Yeah, you can't. How cool would that be though?

Also I thought I was the only person with a Zune.

Long time no see Sharkie


P.S., Oh the magic you can do with an old A/V cable:

nice, I have a zune, and It helps when browsing quickly for a song name while Im spinning at a club. Plus it hooks up to my Orokrs

Alright this is officially the Zune thread

I woke up this morning and I thought my right ear was going to explode off my head because I fell asleep with one of the microsoft ear buds in the ear and those hurt like a motherfucker after like 30 minutes

true story

the tv-out interface is nice on that yep but zune still wishes it was an ipod.

pretty sure zunes are terrible congrats on your brick
thankfully my ipod is the size of your screen and also it's about as thin as your wallet after buying that shit

I picked up a Zune about a month ago, and I'm extremely satisfied with it. The 2nd Gens in particular are really nice, especially how fluid the whole experience between it and the Zune software (works better than the iPod, from what I've seen, although I haven't tried the newest iPods, but the iTunes+Quicktime software is still slow as fuck and resource-hogging to the exxxtreme in Windows even after...3? 4 years?), plus I can make XNA games on it :P Although I haven't had TOO much time to mess with it yet, I just got Proximity HD technically running on it (although the graphics, input, and sound are all still screwed up, because I didn't design the game with different screen resolutions and controls in mind, and the Zune uses a newer sound API).

You other Zune people should add my gamertag sometime. It's SageClock.

Not entering the Zune vs iPod debate because it's gonna just be shitty because people seem to be under the illusion that one is colossally better than the other

It doesn't really wish it was an iPod when it's up to par with the iPod

ipod's tv out resolution is pretty much double that of the zune, dvd quality son.

i don't have to fumble with a bunch of settings to watch it on my tv.

and of course it wants to be an ipod, that's what it is an ipod knock off meant to try and capture some of apples market share, it's still a cool device though.
