Keyboard play/pause/next buttons on other windows

Postby Mellin » Mon Aug 31, 2015 3:36 pm

I have a small problem with SMPlayer playing eg. music in background.

When I'm working in other window some times I wish to use my keyboard's special buttons, such as play/pause, or next track.
Although those button work perfectly when I'm in SMPlayer window, when I'm in other window they don't. I get no reaction until I go back to SMPlayer window.

My specs:
SMPlayer 14.9.0 (svn r7014) (64-bit)
Windows 10 (64-bit)
Keyboard - Logitech K330

I also had same problem with my old Windows 7 (64-bit) but I don't remember what version of SMPlayer was it.

If there is a way to turn it on, then I will be grateful for letting me know and sorry for bothering anyone who reads this topic.
Thanks in advance.

Right now SMPlayer only gets keyboard events when it has the focus.
