Hi Don:
Perhaps a couple of entries in the confignames.ini file will help you.
It sounds to me like you are saying, that each of these windows is
associated with a different application file or resource. If this is
the case, you can specify an entry in the confignames.ini file for each
of these resources.
so for instance, you could create the following entries for this
application;
_wingdi=DirectTV
quartz=DirectTV
Now you can create a script file called DirectTV.jss and create
scripts for the various hotkeys.
For your purposes, you could create a global variable to store the
handle for the main window. You could set this variable when the
application first gains focus. AutoStartEvent would probably be a good
place to do this.
In each of your hotkey scripts you could
then use SetFocus to temperarily set the focus to the main window and
then perform the appropriate keystroke.

Hi listers,
I have another project. DirecTV has an application that runs on your
PC and lets you watch programs recorded on their R22 DVR. The problem I
am having is that the main screen is like Windows Media Center and uses
the full screen. When viewing a recorded show in standard definition
(SD), a separate window appears in front that contains the video. This
window owner is quartz.dll. Unfortunately, the audio and hotkeys for
playback control are only available when the main window, _wingdi.exe,
is in the foreground!
Is there a way to write scripts for quartz.dll that can pass keystrokes
like Control +p to pause the show to the main window, _wingdi.exe?
