Does anyone know how to get the media keys to work with winamp when you are inside a game?

I've tried it with BF2142, Fear, etc and I can't seem to get it to work.
I've also enabled global key shortcuts in winamp.

The media keys work fine with windows media player..

Is Winamp running on the desktop or minimized to the system tray?

sorry for oftopic but i can't imagine playing an intensive game like BF or Fear and i can still listen to something else except the footsteps of approaching soldiers or the sound of jet trying to come behind me :)

I prefer some thrash metal when I have my character shoot someone like D1ck Cheney shot Harry Whittington, In the face :banana:

To get back on topic...

I have the same keyboard and winamp and the same issue a while back.
You need to "Enable Global Hot-Keys" and then your good.

Now to get back off topic... :)

I like Up-Front UK Hardcore/Underground J-Core. 180-240 BPM anyone? (Electronica) www.HappyHardcore.com if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the input, but as I mentioned, i did enable the global shortcut keys. They work fine outside of the games but not in the games. Are there any known applications that might cause this problem?

Edit: I forget to mention that the volume control works but it controls the master volume. I have ctrl+volume for just changing the volume in winamp. Also did a reinstall of winamp but it didnt help :(

Oh, I did't see it.

Some game just won't work at all. You kinda just deal with it.

I can play and control it with the keys, just have winamp in the task bar and not minimized.
