Title: Where can I stop MC32 from hijacking my media keys?
Post by: Knew on August 14, 2024, 12:35:23 pm

Hi, I attempted to search this up, and extensively looked through all the MC32 options with no luck. When I press the mute/skip/pause/play media keys on my keyboard, MC32 will respond, although this was expected, what was unexpected was it to continue holding the media keys when the MC32 window was not selected. As a result, if I enable the option to keep MC32 open in the background, or keep it open in the background, it will keep holding my media keys and not let normal usage outside of MC32 commence.

If there is a way to stop MC32 from holding my media keys when MC32 is not a selected window, or disable it entirely, this would be nice.
Perhaps MC33 can have it share the media keys like Spotify, PotPlayer, etc.? This would be the best and most flexible option. in my opinion.

Thanks in advance.
