I'm looking for VLC to respond in like no matter which manufacturer of peripheral device I am using with it. I'm not looking for more configuration options for this. There really aren't any config options in VLC for that. But this works for the Logitech mouse only, the Logitech keyboard I still have to press spacebar or play/pause depending on whether I'm focused on the program or not to get it to function properly. My current workaround is to set the local hotkey as spacebar - and then custom configure Logitech through Setpoint to target the play/pause button to spacebar instead when pressed in VLC only. The Logitech play/pause buttons would now only work when not focused on the program - when focused on VLC, it would "double-press" the button. But here's what happened when I set Media Play/Pause as the global hotkey play/pause button: The Saitek keyboard worked perfectly, whether focused on the program or not, but now the Logitechs were acting funny. So after some time, I finally got global hotkeys to work by running the program in administrator mode when I applied the changes. That's when I noticed the global HotKeys. The Saitek Play/Pause button worked but the Logitechs didn't function. So I cleared out all of the hotkey settings and tested 3 devices. The Logitechs on the other hand were functioning regularly. Now it was "double-pressing" play/pause so it would either pause and unpause really fast, or upause and repause really fast. So after updating, I noticed that the dedicated play/pause button on my Saitek keyboard was acting funny. Global hotkeys were something I really wanted, but didn't think was available. When I updated versions, I didn't know about the global hotkeys yet and was only using local hotkeys up until that point - stuck with focusing on VLC whenever sending a command. I programmed one of my mouse buttons to function as play/pause and both keyboards have dedicated buttons for this. I use a Saitek Eclipse III keyboard, and I also have a wireless Logitech Mouse MX620 and wireless Logitech Wave keyboard K350.
