Multimedia Keys
Have you bought a new keyboard with cool multimedia keys only to find out that your favorite web-based music streaming service ignores them? Nuvola supports them out of the box.
Nuvola Runtime Service Required
You need to install Nuvola Runtime Service to enable support for Multimedia keys. If the service is installed, it starts automatically when needed. More about Nuvola Runtime Service.
Google Chrome eats multimedia keys
It has been reported that Google Chrome 73 or later exclusively binds media keys, which makes them unavailable for other applications including Nuvola.
If you are affected by this issue, open a new Chrome tab, enter address
chrome://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling and disable Hardware Media Key Handling.
To enable Multimedia keys, open Preferences dialog from the Menu button and toggle Multimedia keys option on.
