amaroK and multimedia keyboard

Sun Nov 27, 2005 2:12 pm
Hi!

I have a multimedia keyboard and I\'m using xbindkeys programm to enable additional keys. I have configured two keys for Opera browser, but I don\'t know how to configure keys for amaroK.
I tried using:
\"amarokapp -p\" to start playing
\"amarokapp -s\" to stop playing
\"amarokapp -r\" to start playing a previous file
\"amarokapp -f\" to jump to the next file in the playlist.

I also tried \"amarok\" instead of \"amarokapp\" but in both cases the result was the same - it just launched another amaroK window. At the end I had 6 amaroK icons on the tray.
Moreover, all commands launched amaroK with a clear playlist even though I had already created one.

Does anybody know how to connect these keys with amaroK?
On the internet I have only found some configs for XMMS.
