🎛️ MULTIMEDIA KEYS 🎛️

Multimedia keys are supported using the GNOME Settings Daemon (requires dbus) or directly registered with the Xorg Display Server. 🦋

the second one (directly registered with Xorg) may not always work if multiple running applications are registering the same key. so if it's being weird, that's why. it's not you, it's the key fight 😭

for both cases the following operations are permitted:

  • 'play' or 'pause' / XF86AudioPlay or XF86AudioPause — Start / Pause playback.
  • 'stop' / XF86AudioStop — Stop playback.
  • 'next' / XF86AudioNext — Play previous track.
  • 'prev' / XF86AudioPrev — Play next track.
👀 yes that's exactly how it's written on the page, bestie. we are reporting the facts, not fixing the facts.
