Hi

since 1.1.6 or 1.1.7 version it's not possible anymore to change the system audio volume (with "hotkeys" on my mouse or keyboard) when VLC is in foreground. now when i want to change it i have to exit full-screen playback, click on e.g. the task-bar, then change the volume and re-enter fullscreen.

Don't know what you've changed but change it back so that's it's not "blocking" these shortcut-keys to change the volume. please
i use VLC windows version on win7 x64.

BTW: VLC = best player i know of. keep it going!

cheers
