Disable CTRL+ MWHEEL shortcut

Post by hiddenyak »

Hello,

When I press CTRL + MWHEEL UP or CTRL + MHWEEL down, MediaMonkey executes a "Play last" or "Play next" command, even when not focused. This is a common hotkey in other applications and is very annoying. I'd very much like to disable this but I can't find it anywhere in the "Hotkeys" section in the Options. Can anyone help me?

Thanks so much

I don't remember what the default setting /options are for the Hotkeys.
I've deleted or changed many of them because they conflict with setting hotkeys
in RegExpFind&Replace addon.

However, I do have at least one of those commands under "Playback" in Hotkeys section.
Playback: Next file, but I don't see a Playback: Last file.

You don't see anything like that?

Maybe it's set in Windows to execute the play next/last commands?

Oh my god. Thank you guys so much for your replies. You guys motivated me to do some more testing and I found out this isn't actually MediaMonkey... Another application running in the background is capturing my CTRL + MWHEEL and executing something that is causing MediaMonkey to Play: Next and Play: Last. I figured out how to disable it in the other application and everything is fine now. Thanks!!!

It was a tool for Path of Exile called "Awakened PoE Trade".
