So I'm running Windows 10 and simply want to use the multimedia keys (Pause/Play/Skip) on my keyboard to control iTunes while I'm in FFXI, so I don't have to tab out of FFXI to skip/pause my music. For some reason I'm having a tremendous amount of trouble trying to get them to work. I've narrowed it down to being a problem with FFXI as well, the media keys function perfectly while I'm tabbed in to any other game or program.

So far I've tried every different combination of running iTunes/FFXI as admin, restarting my PC and all of that. I've also noticed my other function keys (open calculator/explorer/etc.) on my keyboard work while I'm in game.

If anyone has had this same issue and found a workaround I'd greatly appreciate the help.
