Better default keymaps are always welcome if you have better suggestions.
..which are assigned to keys in my case (mce x10-remote). play_pause in example does not work for a playing track like it does for videos - it goes back to start of song.
i just wondered why there is a different assignment for video than for audio handling.
in my opinion certain keys should always react the same in all views (play, pause, stop, ff, rwd) by default and only have different assignments if a user modifies them.
btw: still not an answer why SPACE is assigned to pause for video and NOW PLAYING list for music by default
what's the reason? is there one at all? it's just that talking to a mac user without a remote, he asked me how to pause a song. so for a user that has NO remote, there is no way to pause a track without an osd or a gui button.
edit: i take your 2nd sentence as a hint. might pass you a suggested one the next days. lets see if i can use my remote by just interpreting it's commands send without modification first. maybe i can use default actions without sending keystrokes.
