Andre, the problem w/doing this in kb manager is that u have 3 classifications for keys: 1) common--this functions for any computer; 2) desktop; & 3) laptop. U can have only 1 key assigned to each of these classifications using keyboard manager. The way to get around this is to assign a keystroke to f12 by writing a script that does the play/pause thing. If u still wish to use kb manager, then either flip control p to laptop or desktop & assign f12 to common, or simply let f12 be assigned to laptop or desktop.
