First of all, awesome app and works great!

Device/OS:

Issue

The keyboard fn shortcut for fast-forward ▶▶ works! it moves to the next song! (this is the same keyboard key for f9 on my keyboard) However, The play/pause ▶❙❙ shortcut does not resume/stop the current song. Is there any reason for this, or a work-arround ? (this is the same keyboard key for f8 on my keyboard)

Unfortunately, as far as I know, this is just doomed to be flaky until Apple ever gives us an “official” way to support the play/pause key.

I suspect you may have another app open, or did at the time you started Hermes, which also wants to respond to the play/pause key. ITunes is a common culprit. I would recommend that you try to quit iTunes or other media applications before starting Hermes.

@nriley I see, thank you, I'll close this then and try to find a solution.
