Global hotkeys
I tried searching around for this feature and have only come up with 2-4+ year old responses, so probably a lot in VLC has changed by then. I have VLC 1.0.5 Goldeneye and it says stuff about setting global hotkeys in preferences, but I can't seem to get it to work. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.
Re: Global hotkeys
You cannot bind the keys or the binded keys don't react?

Re: Global hotkeys
VLC 1.1.0 nightly builds work any better?
http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win32/?C=M;O=D trunks are 1.1.0

Re: Global hotkeys
No.
But anyways I figured it out (possible bug with VLC?). For one thing, VLC does not seem to like having - or = (the two keys between 0 and backspace) as global hotkeys. I wanted to use Ctrl - and Ctrl = but it wouldn't work. And another thing I found out, you have to restart VLC for the changes to actually take effect.

Re: Global hotkeys
yea i finally got it working, but yea it seems to be very picky what keys are allowed global. [] don't work for instance, neither do + or - on the number pad. on win7 ms natural 4000 kb.
