Vivaldi blocking keyboard multimedia keys from working
-
Vivaldi 2.6.1566.6 (Official Build) snapshot (64-bit)
So Vivaldi is stealing media hotkeys and I can't control my music player anymore.
Its a new Chrome 74 feature and it can be disabled here:
chrome://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling
https://www.ghacks.net/2019/04/17/fix-chrome-blocking-keyboard-multimedia-keys-from-working/Should it be disabled by default?
I think we need an option in the settings. -
Hi,
are you still having keyboard issues? Build 1566-6 bumped to Chromium 75.0.3770.82

@lamarca yes I have (linux version)
I will test today's snapshot this weekend. -
Vivaldi 2.7.1594.4 (Official Build) snapshot (64-bit)

Still broken.. Vivaldi still hijacks the keys even if Hardware Media Key Handling is disabled.

@xPandamon
Disabled Hardware Media Key seems working for me.
Not sure about Vivaldi 2.8.1662.4 (Official Build) snapshot (64-bit) -
@xPandamon, as @Stardust reported, disabling the Hardware Media Key work for me too on Vivaldi 2.8.1664.38 (x64) running on Ubuntu 18.04 w/ Linux Kernel 5.0.0-29.
@lamarca, as @Stardust say on first post, it was interesting have an option on settings to enable or disable this functionality.
Also, why we can't track the bug? The community doesn't have access to a tool like Mozilla do with Bugzilla?
