ok before i had sonicstage 1.5, and i could use the play, next, previous and stop buttons on my microsoft keyboard to control it. i find on sonicstage 2, that this keyboard buttons dont work at all, it works with almost all the players i have drown at it, except the new version of sonicstage :sad:

its not a big deal but im used to changing tracks like this.

I'm bumping this thread two years later and wondering whether there's any solution to making a typical multimedia keyboard (e.g., my Wireless Optical Pro) control SonicStage. When SonicStage alone is loaded, the next and previous track keyboard buttons do the right thing, and stop will stop SonicStage, but the Pause/Play button on the keyboard that always calls up Windows Media Player and fails to affect SonicStage.

I'm wishing this would work because I just got myself the whole Bluetooth Logitech system with playback controls on the wireless receiver units and wireless headphones. Same with the keyboard on the Bluetooth devices: next/previous and stop buttons work, but not the critical play/pause button. Logitech's Bluetooth system sends playback control commands via the A2DP Bluetooth protocol, therefore it's important for SonicStage to respond as A2DP continues to integrate with Windows.

I have the same problem, sorta. I have the Logitech Bluetooth Desktop (Elite Keyboard + MX900 mouse). The multimedia keys (all 4 of them) work fine as long as SonicStage is not in simple mode, and as long as it's the active window. Of course that makes it kind of worthless :)
