Is there a way to make the global shortcuts work regardless? [07:12] appleseed: interesting. maybe that qualifies as a bug? [07:14] iconmefisto: perhaps; I imagined that there might be a kde interface setting like focus-stealing or something to sort this out, but I can't see it. [07:14] there is a focus-stealing setting somewhere [07:15] appleseed: right-click a titlebar, configure window behaviour. Focus section [07:17] iconmefisto: thx I'll see if that does anything at all to fix it [07:19] appleseed: doesn't seem to make a difference for me. let me know if you get any better results [07:19] iconmefisto: yup, I also tried all the settings and no joy [07:35] Can anyone point me in the right direction to rip a dvd to .avi format?
