[Bug 425830] Re: Media buttons don't work

[Pihhan]

I have similar problem with Amarok. I have working multimedia keys when
amarok is focused. But i don't really understand, why do i have to run
shortcut configuration and for each key, press media key, and assign it
to action. You see, there is Media play, it suggests it is used to run
play. There is Media next, and surprise, most users would use to for
next track. So, i wish that keys would be there predefined. Amarok
allows more than one shortcut for one operation, that is good. So
please, predefine known media keys related to amarok for basic
functions. I understand there might be slight problem with play/pause or
play recognition, but let it be user configurable. Please, use some
smart defaults for those having multimedia keyboards with keys on them.

I would like to see system like gnome has, where media keys are handled
by metacity and multimedia players can "share" global keys. I only ask,
when amarok has focus, let it handle media keys by default how users
might expect, if not global media keys are handled instead.
