Open Url in Player, Toogle Performance Options and Fn Keys

[SorrymyEN]

I do not really like games, but as I have not found an area for simple tricks and tips, I'll post it here if it can be useful to someone.

1 - Quickly open videos from a site with an external player to use extra features like synchronization, capture, seek levels, or just improve perfomance. I tested 12 of the main players and this one I used was that opened a greater amount of video sites (but also check your installed codecs and customized shortcuts of the player). On a streaming site, click and hold F6 for 1 second and the player below will open video (credits to user Rohwedder by the click-hold-launch-drop code).

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive ahk_class MozillaWindowClass
$F6::
#IfWinActive ahk_class Chrome_WidgetWin_1
$F6::
Send_ctrl_l := False
SetTimer, Send_ctrl_l, -1000
KeyWait, F6
SetTimer, Send_ctrl_l, Off
If !Send_ctrl_l
Send, {F6}
Return
Send_ctrl_l:
Send_ctrl_l := True
Send, ^l
Sleep 50
ClipWait, 1
Send, ^c
Run, C:\Program Files (x86)\SMPlayer\smplayer.exe %clipboard%
Return
#IfWinActive

2 - Quickly switches between "slow" (with all visual options) and "fast" (with none) Windows OS modes. Caution: If you often customize the visual elements of your system, create a restore point before testing this, as Windows always returns to its original default in "slow mode."

Code: Select all

#=::
Run, SystemPropertiesPerformance.exe
Sleep 2000
Send, {Down 2}{Enter}
Return
#-::
Run, SystemPropertiesPerformance.exe
Sleep 2000
Send, {Up 2}{Enter}
Return

3 - Remapping Power/Sleep/WakeUp keys. First, go to power settings on control panel and disable Power/Sleep/WakeUp keys. Keep in mind that, even if remapped, these keys only work with the Fn key pressed.

Code: Select all

sc15E:: ; Fn key and POWER button to open shutdown box.
Run, C:\Users\Administrador\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Shows Desktop.lnk
Send, <!F4<
Return
sc15F::+Tab ; Fn key and SLEEP button as TAB
Return
sc163::Tab ; Fn key and WAKEUP as SHIFT+TAB
Return
