Trying to setup hotkeys for media programs on my ASUS FX504 Laptop

[AussieWill93]

So, apart from volume and mute control keys. My laptop doesn't have any on board play/pause or skip forward or back keys. I'm just wondering whether or not I can some how program them myself?

Which player do you use?
e.g. for VLC:
