Launch Applications from the Main Menu

Beyond Media Basic provides the interface for launching applications using your Firefly Remote Control.

1.Press the Firefly Button to launch the Beyond Media Basic Main Menu.  
 
2.The following Main Menu options are populated by default. If no media application associated with a particular option is installed on your PC, the option will not appear in the list. For example, if Beyond TV (or another TV application) isn't installed on your PC, the "TV" option will not appear in the Main Menu. Use the up and down Navigation Buttons to scroll through these options. Select one of the first five Main Menu options to launch your favorite media applications and press the OK button. The application associated with that option will launch.  
 
·Music  
·Photos  
·DVD  
·TV  
·Video  
·Settings  
·Browse Files  
·Start Menu  
·Running Applications  
 
NOTE: You can also launch certain applications without using the Beyond Media Basic Main Menu. The Media buttons marked Music, Photos, DVD, TV and Video launch the applications assigned to them in Media Button Settings.  
 
3.If you want to launch an application not associated with a Media Button, select the "Start Menu'" option. This command is equivalent to pressing the Start Button in your Windows Taskbar and selecting All Programs.... Locate the shortcut for the application you want to launch and select it just as you would using your keyboard and mouse.  
 
The document Add Applications to the Main Menu explains how to customize the applications available in the Main Menu. You can also remove the Default options from the Main Menu in Interface Settings.
