...well, no, in VLC, maybe you cannot...but with AutoHotkey, you can...You cannot.
Code: Select all
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
F9::WinMinimize, VLC media player
...that's easy (well, sorta), but wasn't part of the original request...before you just said "minimize VLC"....but how do I make it to also pause the VLC?
...this part is a little hard. I do know of a way to do it (maybe a couple ways), but it's a little overkill for this. It's easier to manually run the Hotkey script whenever you need it, or set it to start with Windows & leave it running.It's also better for this hotkey to start every time I execute VLC...
...this part's easy & I even thought about writing it that way, but I thought since it was a "Boss Key" you wouldn't wanna push it & have it "not work" cuz VLC wasn't active. If VLC being active is an OK requirement, that's fine & easy to code....and only applied when VLC window is active...
