There are play pause stop forward and reverse Fn buttons on the arrow keys. Anyone know how to get these to work with Winamp?

Go into Perferences, Under "General Perferences -> Gobal Hotkeys"

check the box to enable "Gobal Hotkeys" and then add the keys manually. After you do that, the keys will work even when winamp is minimized.

on the otherhand, i can't get these buttoms to work for iTunes when the windows is running in the background or minimized. >(

You have to delete all the defaults settings and then add the hotkeys!
My winamp 5.21 working well!

I can stop/start/pause the music and use the forward/reverse keys in any application.

yeah that, or else you will get an error message for mapping two keys to the same function.
