Hello, I recently changed from Winamp to Foobar2000 mainly because Winamp was eating up my ram and I was looking for a more minimalistic player. So far, I love foobar2000. The only thing that I'm missing is the ability to change/pause/stop/start the song that's playing while the player isn't in focus. I did a search and couldn't find what I'm looking for. If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be very thankful.

Thanks in advance,
FaNtAsMa

Click on the "Foobar2000" menu, and select "Pereferences". Under "Core", look for "Keyboard Shortcuts".

While in Keyboard Shortcuts, look for the action you want to assaign a key to (in this case, it would be: [main] Playback/Play or pause, and so-on) Make sure "Global Hotkey" is checked, and click on "Add".

That should do it.
