Laptop volume wheel does not work as expected in MPC-HC

Hi!

When I installed Windows 7 on my Toshiba Qosmio F20 laptop few days ago, one of the first things I did was to install MPC-HC on it.
However, I found that my laptop volume control did not work properly in MPC-HC. To be precise, the laptop wheel in WinXP used to adjust global (i.e. Windows) volume when playing a video in MPC-HC. Now, in Windows 7, laptop volume wheel does not adjust Windows global volume when MPC-HC window is active, but adjusts volume using MPC-HC's volume slider instead.

I was wondering, is it possible to revert to 'old' behaviour of the laptop volume wheel, where the wheel adjusts global Windows volume no matter whether MPC-HC window is active or not?

Check in Options->Keys. Maybe if you remove the binding from the list, the key press will automatically propagate to the Operating System.
