It should be possible to use more keys for one function/action. This should work for Global Hotkeys, too. (Maybe especially for Global Hotkeys) I don't know the base of Global Hotkeys, if it is based on the winamp plugin I guess I have to take it. If it is a built-in feature you can create the ability to use different keys for the same function. A primary and secondary (Global) Hotkey.

I hope you know what I want to say.

To explain it: Play/Pause „Ctrl + Alt + P“ (primary) and „Ctrl + Alt + X“ (secondary) while another application is active.

If you use Global Hotkeys settings in KMP Preferences (General -> Key/Global Control), you can only use one key for the same function.

But you can use the Global Hotkeys Winamp plugin to assign two hotkeys to "Play/Pause". Go to right-click -> Options -> Winamp window -> Preferences.

Then go to Global Hotkeys settings, select "Enabled" and create two new hotkeys.

Thanks. I've tried it and it seems to work very well.... If a user guide is ready to be downloaded this possibility should be integrated

Thanks again

Thanks. I've already recognized that a user guide is available and I downloaded it.
