问题
i dont know a better title for the question , but i`ll illustrate my problem.
I am working on application that acts like a mp3 player , it uses the Multimedia keys to play/pause , stop the song , i actually made it work but the FormApplication must be in the top [Focused]
protected override void WndProc(ref Message msg)
{
if (msg.Msg == 0x319) // WM_APPCOMMAND message
{
// extract cmd from LPARAM (as GET_APPCOMMAND_LPARAM macro does)
int cmd = (int)((uint)msg.LParam >> 16 & ~0xf000);
switch (cmd)
{
case 13: // APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_STOP constant
MessageBox.Show("Stop");
break;
case 14: // APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE
MessageBox.Show("Play/Pause");
break;
case 11: // APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_NEXTTRACK
MessageBox.Show("Next");
break;
case 12: // APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_PREVIOUSTRACK
MessageBox.Show("Previous");
break;
default:
break;
}
}
base.WndProc(ref msg);
}
private void Form1_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
Message m = new Message();
m.Msg = e.KeyChar;
WndProc(ref m);
}
So what i need to do is : making the multimedia keys work even if the program is on the background and is not on top or focused , just like how winamp and Windows Media Player works.
I searched a lot on the internet but most of them gives me a way similar to the one i am using.
Thank you a lot for your help in advance.

You need a OS level keyboard hook. e.g user32.dll SetWindowsHookEx via P/Invoke. You can find below a sample, but you'll have to tailor it to your needs.
Note: The Dispatcher here is the WPF dispatcher so that RawKeyEventArgs can be raised.

/// </summary>
public KeyboardListener(Dispatcher dispatcher)
{
// Dispatcher thread handling the KeyDown/KeyUp events.
_dispatcher = dispatcher;
// We have to store the LowLevelKeyboardProc, so that it is not garbage collected runtime
_hookedLowLevelKeyboardProc = LowLevelKeyboardProc;
// Set the hook
_hookId = InterceptKeys.SetHook(_hookedLowLevelKeyboardProc);
// Assign the asynchronous callback event
_hookedKeyboardCallbackAsync = new KeyboardCallbackAsync(KeyboardListener_KeyboardCallbackAsync);
}
