I'm guessing your running X? If so then I don't believe there is an easy
way out of this as the keyboard events will be sent to the in focus
window, ie the player.
The only way to control the players when in X is using a remote control
(lirc/bluetooth phone/etc) that goes direct to freevo. I have similar
problems when developing the code, I had to keep dragging freevo off to
one side and making sure it had focus to allow it to get the keyboard
presses.

Cheers

Adam
