Good day.

For now media keys like Play/Pause, Skip and Previous may be bound to only one action: send dbus command to some application, start script and so on. And, as result, now only one mpris player may be controlled by media buttons.

So what I'm talking about. Can you implement the feature that will allow to control all the active  players with the same set of media buttons? Like "Player" applet in the system tray do. Thanks

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-

Actual Results:  
Media (and other keys) can be bound to only one action (and only one player as well)

Expected Results:  
Media keys must be able to control any active mpris-compatible media player

The requested behaviour is the default now. This bug should be updated and closed to reflect that.
