I'm using also IntelliType Version 8 for 64-Bit Windows 7. But it seems like it's only a problem of MusicBee. I found a plugin for MusicBee on their forum which solves the (IntelliType) problem.
After some rechecking (restart...) Windows Media Player and Winamp works also fine, even if the app is not focused and on the second screen.
I think the problem is solved. Thanks again! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#4 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:15:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#4 DisplayFusion I've got a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 keyboard here, and the multimedia keys seems to work ok with DisplayFusion 4.0.1 Beta 4, and the IntelliType 8.2 64-bit software. Which version of the IntelliType software are you currently running? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#3 Sun, 20 May 2012 08:47:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#3 DisplayFusion Hey, thanks for the quick response.

My keyboard is a Microsoft Sidewinder X4, Model number 1421.

At first I used it without driver, which worked fine. Even the multimedia keys on the top worked. But some time ago I wanted to use the 6 macro buttons on the left, thus I had to install the original drivers with windows update.
If you are now going to test this configuration maybe the driver is a problem. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#2 Sat, 19 May 2012 00:45:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a#2 DisplayFusion That's interesting! What brand of keyboard is it? I'd like to do some testing here next week to see what I can find out.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a Fri, 18 May 2012 08:56:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/multimedia-hotkeys-problem/?ID=16af6393-466b-4716-b3c8-4d05da08ce7a DisplayFusion Hey,
I love your app, but now I have a simple problem.

My keyboard as several multimedia hotkeys for play/pause, forward, back and stop. When I press one of this buttons, normally the multimedia app (vlc, music bee, windows media player (only one at a time)) would do what it should do.
But, when I move the opened app to the second screen with a display fusion taskbar, these hotkeys are not send to the app. The app simple doesn't respond. Now I could maybe set other shortkeys for this app, but why not use the keys i have?

Do I miss a configuration setting? Is the display fusion taskbar not able of sending this hotkeys to the docked applications? Why are they removed from the "global hotkey receiving" (or however it is called)?

Thanks for answering. ]]>
