Does anyone have experience intercepting the play/pause and rew/ff
(seek back / seek forward) keys on some keyboards? Particularly, the
MacBook / MacBook Pro keyboards?
These keys control iTunes and QuickTime just fine when they're
running but I'd like to intercept them myself
I would also like to know this. I tried fiddling around with an as-
low-as-I-could-go CGEventTap a while ago to try and intercept them,
but they never showed up in the callback. Ditto on the volume and
eject keys.
I think these buttons may work on the same principle as secure

Thanks, Bill, it looks promising. I was worried about the need for
being multiple-keyboard-layout-aware but if the keys are merely
defines in a header, it's probably

I noodled around with this for SousChef, and it's fairly straight
forward to get the events (I can provide code if desired). However
the problem I ran into was that I couldn't stop the events from also
going to iTunes like the QT player does. So its not too helpful since

I haven't gone that
An application of mine, FunctionFlip, does just this - it eats
special key presses. I use a CGEventTap at kCGSessionEventTap. To get
system events, you have to tell the tap to listen to NX_SYSDEFINED
events. Then, if you want to stop the event, just return null from
your callback. I can
The pertinent methods, from my app's delegate. It listens for both
regular and special key presses, so modify accordingly.
