[8.0ß16-x64] Multimedia buttons are sent twice

Post by *umbra »

Hi, when I press a multimedia button on my keyboard, computer behaves as if I pressed it twice.
For example when I press a Play/Pause button, media player running in the background starts and immediately stops playing. Or when I press a Calc button, two instances of Calculator are started. Standard keys are not affected.

This only happens while TC x64 window is active. I tried TC x32 and other 32/64b applications (elevated and non-elevated) to check, if it isn't a keyboard driver problem, but TC x64 is the only one causing this.

Tested on TC80b16 with clean ini using Windows 7 64b.

Strange, I will try to reproduce it. Unfortunately the player I use (Winamp) doesn't seem to react to these buttons at all.

I'm having a similar issue. My keyboard's mute button doesn't work when 8.0B16 x64 is in focus. It works fine with the stable version, haven't tried 8.0 32-bit though. Also tested on a clean ini config, Win7 x64.

All the other multimedia buttons work fine. (Play/Pause/Previous/Next/Volume). My keyboard is a Logitech G15.

I'm also using Winamp and the mute button works again when I minimize TC or switch windows (alt-tab)..
