I'm trying to use VLC's python bindings to create my own little video player. The demo implementation is quite simple and nice, but it requires all the keyboard commands to be typed into the console from which the script was run.

Is there any way I can handle keyboard input also when the video player itself has focus? Specifically, I care about controlling the video while in fullscreen mode.

Perhaps there's a way to keep the keyboard focus in the console (or maybe another window) while showing the video?

I'm using Windows XP, if that has any relevance.
