I just installed Foobar2000 v0.8.3, and lost all my preferences. I went to set global hotkeys up, but they don't seem to be working. I set them up, and they're showing in the keyboard shortcut area as global, and i've restarted foobar, but nothing. Any ideas what I can try?

thats very weird..
so they do show up in the assigned shortcuts section and have a [g] (global) in front of them?

if yes... no ideal

Yeah, they do. It used to work! Dag nabbit.

Attached a screen shot of the foobar window - had to crop it lots because of a size limit on head-fi.

bummer!

reinstall foobar2000... delete the whole folder.. minus the playlists .. or just rename the folder if you want to revert back to your old version

It installs over the top, and loses settings each time. Oh well. I'll see if anyone knows the answer, if not i'll try that other forum, thanks.

Solved it - I was using the wrong button - alt instead of shift

I'm a software developer, you'd think I could've managed something that simple!
