Hello, I tried to use your plugin with 0.8.6e version but somehow I can't make it work.
I copied the dll file into plugins directory.
There was also a patch file, so I just copied it do plugins directory too.
Now there's a part of readme fille I can't quite understand:
to start vlc with Global Hotkeys enabled call 'vlc --extraintf=globalhotkeys' (with this way it's possible to control which vlc-instance has them enabled).
the automatic startup is enabled by adding globalhotkeys to "Preferences/Interface/Main Interfaces/Extra interface modules" (in this case only the first instance has them working).
Following these instructions I got this:
So then I determined the hotkeys, saved and restarted. But they dont seem to be working properly. Some (but not all) do when the player's window is active, but none does when something else is active - which is the very idea of global hotkeys ...
I also dont get this part of readme file:
usage:
set the Hotkeys in "Preferences/Interface/Hotkeys settings/Global Hotkeys", save and restart (all used ones need a key assigned in the standard Hotkeys settings).
all used ones need a key assigned in the standard Hotkeys settings?
I would really appreciate your help, I really want to get rid of Winamp once and for all.
EDIT: I'm using windows XP.
