Media Info, VT, EQ should be accessed via single key stroke if at all posible. 
I'm not shure if apple ot allows this natively, but this is a video player and 
not a word processor and therefore main operations without modifiers are a must 
have.

Video tuner should be accessed via cmd+K shortcut if a single keystroke K is 
unavailable. cmd+K is a standard quicktime shortcut for accessing A/V Controls, 
and has been for a long time. Keeping up with the convention is a good thing 
especially for new users/switchiees.

Optionally Preference tab for setting shortcuts? Although this can be done via 
global osx sys prefs under keyboard shortcuts.

Increase/decrease size should be set to cmd+(+/-) for ease of use. Even thou 
QTX uses currently set shortcuts which feel very unnatural and complicated.

Single keystroke acces for a video player is very logical and a must, 
especially for MPX if it is to set it self apart as a modern & icandy player.

Please dont take this as a critique of your work, which is awesome btw - your 
work that is, I'm just trying to help and set this player aside from 
competition as the only player worth having :)

Thank you for your mild comment, I am really flattered.

In MPX's system, single key short cut to keep the app simple and fast has high 
priority, higher than to adopt with the short-cuts of other popular 
applications.

So you could see a, v, s, f, r...

for the A/V panels, 
since v has been used for video switching, so I use ctrl + v.
and although e isnot used now, to be paired with ctrl + v, I chose to use ctrl 
+ e to open the EQ, rather than e.

> cmd+(+/-)
this indeed causes pain to resize window from keyboard for the guys who do not 
has the multi-touch pad. Honestly, I do not even use this cmd + shift + (+/-)
But cmd+(+/-) is already bond with sub font resizing.

I wondering if there is any other simple solution...

keeping the sort-cut system consistent is really important for an App from the 
very beginning, otherwise it will cause confusion to the users.

It is a good solution to let the user make the choice themselves, by making it 
as the preference.
I will consider this.

Hi, some humble suggestion for shortcut.

Maybe just add more actions in menu.  Then users can change them directly from 
OS X Preference Panel.  Actually MplayerX is the only application I can not 
change shortcut for Full Screen. I simply assign the same shortcut for toggling 
Full Screen in QuickTimePlayer, VLC, GoogleChrome, Skim, iDVD, everything, but 
no way to change it in MplayerX.  There is nothing wrong with F or Cmd-F, but 
it would be really nice if it could be customized.

BTW ZongYao thanks for your awesome work.  Finally we have a hope to remove the 
old VLC from Dock.
