Select Presets via keyboard commands?
I'm using AVS for a nightclub visuals gig and I need to find a way to select specific AVS presets without using the pulldown menu (since it would show up on the projection screen I'm using). Is there a way to select a preset using the number keys maybe?

There is a thread where gobiesh posted a program he made that'll let you do it. Magic X made something similar before.

If you don't mind going through the menu tree, you can use a second display with AVS set to overlay mode. You'll see the menu of the screen you have the render window, just project the overlay. (there's threads about this too)

presets/hotkeys
I don't know if my program can help you coz' it only work in windowed+overlay mode so you need a 2 screen PC config to use it correctly...If you need tips on setting your PC with 2 screen (with a dual head graphic board or 1 AGP + 1 PCI boards), contact me (goebish at hotmail.com) and I'll help you...You can also set 20 hotkeys in AVS via the menu presets/hotkeys....But look at the tread "preswitcher(héhé preset swithcher)", maybe my app will help you...
