None of the keyboard shortcuts works except the space bar and arrow keys

Server Version#: 1.18.8.2527-740d4c206
Player Version#: 1.6.2.994-e05b79d6

I’m running my server and player on a mac mini late 2012 with Catalina 10.15.3.

As mentioned in the title I’m not able to toggle subtitles or any other functions with my keyboard witch is an apple magic 2 keyboard (Turkish Q).

Do I miss something? Is there something I need to set?
Thanks in advance
