Hi, I use the popular video program VLC.  In VLC the key combo for toggling into full-screen mode is Alt-V + F.   The Flirc setup app does not want to accept this key combo.   Is there any way do this and use only one remote button?   I'm a programmer, so you don't need to be gentle.

(PS.  Of course my interest is not only in this particular combination, but in the thousands of different combinations that Windows apps use.)

Yes, that's not a 'kosher' combo. It's usually a keyboard modifier or combination of modifiers + key

If VLC really wants that, I would change the combo to something like ctrl+shift+ 'k'

You are not using a proper shortcut but a top menu activation sequence. Alt-V opens View menu and F selects Fullscreen option. I've just installed VLC only to check this and in my fresh install VLC can be toggled between fullscreen mode and window mode using F11 key.
