I'm using the keyboard and an USB-UIRT to control my apps.
I have mapped the cryptic USB-UIRT event codes to more readable names.
To reduce the number of events i named the basic functions the same as the events from the keyboard and assigned an event name without the prefix.
USB_UIRT.MediaPlayPause and Main.MediaPlayPause from a script work fine but Keyboard.MediaPlayPause does not trigger the macro. I does not even show up in the log, when the bottom left checkbox is checked.
The same is with other keys like Keyboard.MediaNextTrack and Keyboard.MediaPrevTrack.

Re: Keyboard.MediaPlayPause not triggering MediaPlayPause event
The keyboard events will only work, if they are used in the full-qualified form. So the macro must have a "Keyboard.MediaPlayPause" event. A "MediaPlayPause" event isn't enough. This is because keyboard events also block the key and otherwise a user could come to easily into awkward conditions of his system.
