Exclude specific keys

Post by danube »

Hi! Can I exclude the forwarding of specific keys from host to guest? For example, I control the volume of my speakers in the host, not the guest. So I want to exclude the hotkeys for volume control like up, down and mute.

Not yet, I think. Search in Suggestions forum for "Multiledia Keys", still an active request, I believe.
Meanwhile, I changed the host key on my PC from right-control to pause/break, which is right next to the keyboard multimedia keys, and a quick pause/break->multimediakey is quick enough for me for now.
