With the input key field focused does KeyCap detect the SelectMedia button press or is this overridden by the OS?
I don't have that key on any keyboards I own so I'll have to artificially produce it.
KeyCap detects the key when inputted to the field yes.
Can you disable the multimedia keys in the Control Panel > Keyboard settings? I wonder if that will completely disable the keys so KeyCap can't even see the keypresses.
There's no such setting to disable multimedia keys in Control Panel, not sure if it's a keyboard specific feature or if they removed the toggle from Windows 10
I found something worth checking out if you have worked with the registry/regedit before. Apparently there may be some app keys being configured this way. I hope this is what is happening in your case!
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey
APPCOMMAND_LAUNCH_MEDIA_SELECT = 16
Yes the key 16 is found there but not sure if I can really disable it from the registry (or remap to a different key)
No matter what, when I press the key it still opens Windows Media Player, my goal is to remap it to MiddleClick. Tried running the program as administrator, no difference. More typical remaps like remapping A to S does work.
