Command to press the play/pause button in the player

Question

Command to press the play/pause button in the player

Now many players (Windows Media, PowerDVD, etc.) use the universal play/pause button.

Tell me, is there a universal way to send the command to press this button in the application window?

You can pass the same code, but you need to create a flag that will change depending on the number of clicks. And then you can only check the status of this flag.

If you pass the same code to your application, then pass the same code, and in the application, check if something is playing, then put it on pause, otherwise-vice versa. And if you use the multimedia keys on the keyboard, then I have, for example, one key for pause and playback.
