Brightness controller

UPDATE

I created a seperate page for Brightness controller http://www.holstschumacher.dk/p/brightness-controller.html


Brightness controller is a small tool for controlling brightness of Apple Cinema Displays on a Windows PC.

It has only been tested on windows 7 and my 27" Cinema Display.
Other models probably have different product id's so my tool won't work. I will try to update with other models as soon as i get the relevant information from users.

First beta release

Update about Hotkeys
I did not have time to make the hotkeys configurable in this release. But they are hardcoded to
CTRL + ALT + '+' to increase brightness
CTRL + ALT + '-' to decrease brightness

Updated With Screenshots
