Media keys not working

[mvanderkroon]

I'm trying to bind media keys to commands, but unfortunately it either doesn't work, or I'm not fully grasping the syntax.

Some variations I tried:

ctrl + NX_KEYTYPE_NEXT : cmus-remote -u gives: #167:8 expected key-literal

NX_KEYTYPE_NEXT : cmus-remote -u gives: #167:1 undeclared identifier

Version I use is 0.3.4 (homebrew installed)

See also: #1.

ctrl - next : <command>

Edit: Note that while sound_up works with the touch bar, next does not. You're likely better off to configure your F-keys to work as F-keys instead of media keys without holding the fn modifier key by default and then remapping the F-keys instead.

Thanks, that does work - I'm not sure how I missed this in the docs though - sorry for that.

I am dealing with a touchbar here, so I'll probably follow your recommendation on the F-keys as well, many thanks
