DVD playback mouse control issues

I don't have the remote, so I'm using my mouse and the onscreen control pad to control DVD playback on MCE 2005.  I've been generally disappointed with the controls.
 
I've set the channel buttons to skip chapters, but each time I press a channel button, it skips 2 to 4 (typically 4) chapters. 
 
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might fix this and, more importantly, is anyone aware of a way to modify mouse controls of the DVD playback (e.g., with the Roxio DVD player on my old computer, I could search at different speeds using my mouse wheel)?  Is there anyway to modify the control panel?
 
Thanks in advance.

    As far as I'm aware you're stuck with the button config in MCE for the mouse. I havent yet discovered any options that allow you to change them. I could be wrong though.
     
    There's a number of plug-ins that allow you to change various aspects of MCE so you might have some luck there. I cant say for sure though as I havent really looked into what they can or cant do as I was lucky enough to get a remote with my machine.
     
    Remotes are dirt cheap on eBay...
