Is it possible to make a shortcut for the multimedia keys on any other key? In my case I have only the volume keys on my keyboard, no other keys like e.g. to skip songs. Can we have a shorcut to skip a song on another key, or for example on Ctrl+Vol key?

Yes you can! If you are using banshee, Open the keyboard preferences. Click on the second tab named "Shortcuts".
In the left pane, click on custom shortcuts. Click on + sign:
In name put:
Music next
In command put:
banshee --next
Now in the right pane click and put your own accelerator for this.
Enjoy!!!

I already make that for the Banshee, but I want to make in other player (Nuvola Player). If is possible to make an secondary shortcut will be alot easier.– euDennisMay 3, 2012 at 19:17

launchpad.net/nuvola-player The developer says in the next release will have the 'nuvolaplayer --next' feature. But anyway, I was trying to make an secondary shorcut for 'next song' multimedia keyboard because in that way will work with everything.– euDennisMay 5, 2012 at 17:17
I've created a small tutorial that intros this principle by using AutoHotkey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoDfCiKoBCk

Great to see that you have created a tutorial on this, hopefully it will help and solve the original question.– Phil UKDec 8, 2016 at 4:36
