  1. Copy the original .desktop file to your home folder:

    cp /usr/share/applications/umplayer.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/

  2. Open that desktop file for editing :

    gedit ~/.local/share/applications/umplayer.desktop

  3. Add the following at the bottom of the file.

X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=Play;Pause;Stop;Fullscreen;

[Play Shortcut Group]
Name=Play
Exec=umplayer -send-action play
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Pause Shortcut Group]
Name=Pause
Exec=umplayer -send-action pause
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Stop Shortcut Group]
Name=Stop
Exec=umplayer -send-action stop
TargetEnvironment=Unity

[Fullscreen Shortcut Group]
Name=Fullscreen
Exec=umplayer -send-action fullscreen
TargetEnvironment=Unity
  1. Save it and navigate to ~/.local/share/applications/ and make the umplayer.desktop executable and then drag it to the launcher .
