Hello everybody!

I do know that this has been in several dozens of times, but I did search the boards and I still was unable to find a solution.

I currently use foobar 0.9.5 Beta 1 with the default interface and own a Logitech MX 3200 Laser Desktop Set. The Keyboard is named MX 3200. Link to manufacturer's site is here: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboard...40&cl=us,en
My problem now is that foo won't recognize keys.
I set up "Play and Pause" in Keyboard Shortcuts, then went to the Input field, pressed the appropriate key on the Keyboard - and nothing happened. Field stays empty, list still says "unknown>"
Right now, I don't have SetPoint installed. But installing it and trying the trick with the player.ini doesn't help either. Well, at least not for PanelsUI which I used before.
Still, Players like QMP recognize my keys out of the box and I really have no idea what else I shall do.
Ideas, anyone?
Hope that there is a solution...
Thanks, Zyro

My Logitech Access keyboard works fine with multimedia keys. It goes with default MS driver though.

Did you try these keys with other app's like winamp or wmplayer?

Yes, and there they work. This is what pisses me off.
But actually, now that I see the thread again, I have a possible culprit...
A precompiled script for AutoHotkey, named ac'tivAid...I'll check that.

€: Success! This thingie fetched the MM keys away...Deactivated that part of the script, and now it works! Woohoo!
