Hi!

 

I'd love to be able to skip/play/pause tracks when the program is minimized. Currently, when I want to control what is played, I have to open the window and make it active first, which is a bit annoying when I'm doing other stuff on my computer and it kind of beats the purpose of the shortcuts.

 

The ability to change shortcuts would also be really neat! I would like to make the shortcuts more like other media’ players for consistency's sake so my small brain doesn't get confused.

 

Thanks for reading!

Thanks! But my question is about the keyboard shortcuts not working at all. The possibility of changing them is second.

Do I have to make a new thread now that mine has been merged?

Hi @Beee, in fact when you are on the desktop app and minimize the page is not possible to be able to skip/play/pause tracks.
The only option is if the shortcut keys are on your keyboard.

Ahh that's unfortunate, but thank you for the info!
