Use macros with the Logitech g19 G keys
Presented in January, the Logitech G 19 Keyboard’s chief virtue is the inclusion of a small 2-inch LCD screen, which shows various information such as their ancestors, the G15, but now with more color and resolution of 320 × 240 pixels .
The Logitech g 19 keyboard is aimed at an audience made almost exclusively by the gamer market. Besides the screen, its other strengths are the G keys, located on the left and which set up macros that allow quick access, ideal for video games in which, for example, we can perform several simultaneous actions with the push of a single button .
This keyboard includes the Logitech G19 multimedia buttons, volume control on the keyboard (while in other Logitech keyboards there are two buttons, on the G19 it is a kind of rotating cylinder), a pair of USB ports on the rear and a switch that enables and disables the Windows key

.
The operation of the Logitech G19 is based, as most high-end devices from Logitech, in a specific software. While in mice requires SetPoint (here we analyze the Logitech G9 it used), keyboards require a configurator macro keys, which are published all the special actions. Installation is clean and the program is fairly simple to use.
A curious fact is the light of the Logitech G19. While the G15 had two levels of brightness, the G19 is only switched on and off. On the other hand it gives the opportunity to choose the color of the LEDs, allowing almost any possibility. It is set in the ‘Profile Key Logitech G-Series’ with a simple click of the mouse.
Watch Youtube Videos on your G19 Keyboard
Some of the functionality the Logitech G19’s display provides is the display of videos from Youtube, an RSS feed reader, monitor equipment performance and more. Best of all, new features can be downloaded.
A rather curious thing is the ability to watch videos from Youtube in the screen itself. We can choose a set of feeds (usually lists of the most viewed or most popular, for example) and select a video that plays on the small screen and delivers the sound through your computer speakers. It looks pretty good and fluent, but obviously very small.
The viewer has very interesting information, like the CPU usage and memory. It is very simple, but we will know with a glance the performance of your computer. The list of compatible games is quite large.
