Effect: Spacebar forces navigation to next file instead of pausing the video.
To reproduce:
1. Go to Tools > Settings > Interface > Keyboard.
2. Set the "Spacebar" dropdown option to "No Action".
3. Open any video file in View Mode / Fullscreen.
4. Press the Spacebar to pause or play the video.
Actual behavior:
XnView immediately jumps to the next file/image in the directory, completely ignoring the "No Action" override. It only works as expected if you manually left-click onto the video playback bar first to force widget focus.
Expected behavior:
The Spacebar should not trigger global "Next File" navigation when it is explicitly set to "No Action" in the settings, allowing embedded media widgets to handle the keypress event correctly.
Spacebar triggers "Next File" in View Mode during video playback, ignoring "No Action" setting
