navigate using arrow keys in Media Player Classic-HC

1

Today, I installed Media Player Classic-HC and noticed it doesn't use arrow keys for moving forward or backward. I went to View => Options => keys and made the proper changes to my need. But now, there is problem, when I press right arrow key or left arrow key, it pauses the movie instead of jumping ahead. What should I do to prevent it from pausing?

it could be a problem with the file, does the seek bar work properly? – Richie Frame – 2015-02-28T08:30:08.070

@RichieFrame Yeah, seek bar works fine! – undone – 2015-02-28T20:05:27.290

did you make sure that no other command is still using it, like "framestep"? – Richie Frame – 2015-02-28T21:55:01.067

@RichieFrame oh, that was it. Thanks. Post it as answer so I can mark it as answer! – undone – 2015-02-28T23:42:54.843

When changing a key hook, it will not automatically disable a different command with the same key option. There is also no feedback given that there is a conflict (that would be nice).

MPC will use the first ID number associated with that key as its command. If you have selected a new key for a comnmand, you have to look through the other commands and make sure that one of them does not have the same key hook or there will be a conflict, preventing one of them from working.
