Hi everybody!!

So I've just discovered Spotify. Today I found a nice tool (http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/use-keyboard-shortcuts-to-control.html) to handle Spotify with my media Keys (Play/Pause/Stop/next/previous) But the problem is that still want to use my media keys for other applications like songbird / totem movie player etc. And I found no opportunity to set both instructions to one short cut.

1. Question: Did someone find or know a solution to use the keys for both applications?

If no: I thought if I know the general gnome terminal command of play/pause etc. I could write a bash script and link it to the shortcut. so:

2. Question: Does somebody know the terminal command to play/pause etc. all the sound applications?

I hope I'm on the right track. I would already be happy if you give me a hint, where i have to look for it.

thanks a lot! :D
