1. Install extension from the chrome web store.
2. Install the KeySocket server.

   • Mac
     Install Key Socket.app.

   • Windows
     Download and run KeySocket.windows.msi.

   • Linux
     Download and run KeySocket.linux.py. Note that gnome-settings-daemon must be running for KeySocket to work. It is installed by default on Gnome- and Unity-based systems, but may need to be installed and started separately on systems using other deskstop environments (KDE, XFCE, etc.). The script also depends on Autobahn, PyGTK and dbus-python.

   • Linux Alternate Download and run keyserver.bz2.

     Note that this has no gui and requires that you know something of how X maps media keys.

1. Prerequisites:
   • Autobahn for websockets.
   • PyObjC for keyboard events.
2. Clone this repository:
   git clone git@github.com:borismus/keysocket.git
3. Go into the server-mac directory and run setup.py:
   python setup.py py2app
   The app is built in ./dist/Key Socket.app.

1. Prerequisites:
   • Autobahn for websockets.
   • cx_Freeze for building an executable.
2. Clone this repository:
   git clone git@github.com:borismus/keysocket.git
3. Go into the server-windows directory and run setup.py:
   python setup.py build
   The executable is built in ./dist/KeySocket.exe.

1. Prerequisites:

   • Autobahn for websockets.
   • PyGTK for the tray icon.
   • dbus-python for media key interception.

2. Installation of Prerequisites on Ubuntu/Debian

   • sudo apt-get install python-dbus python-gtk2 gnome-settings-daemon
   • sudo easy_install autobahn

3. Clone this repository:
   git clone https://github.com/borismus/keysocket.git

4. No building required. Just run ./server-linux/keysocket.py.

1. Prerequisites:

   • Golang for Go

2. Once your go environment is setup:

   • go get -u -v code.google.com/p/keysocket-server
   • cd $GOPATH/src/code.google.com/p/keysocket-server
   • go build -o keyserver

3. ./keyserver -help for options.

4. If you've setup X Media Keys the Go Server listens to XF86AudioNext,Prev and Play by default. These can be changed with command line flags.

• Looking for adapters for other music players.
