MusicIP Mixer Help - Global Hot Keys
Global hot keys are currently only available on the Windows version
of MusicIP Mixer. To assign global hot keys, create a file called
hotkeys.m3key in the same place as your user preferences
(the install dir), then global hot keys will be active while the app
is running. Each line should specify a key and action.
A key is any number of modifiers + a key, like this: Ctrl+P
Valid modifiers are Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Win. (For compatibility with some other solutions, you can also use an abbreviated format: Ctrl=^ Alt=! Win=# Shift=+).
Many of the extended keys have the usual names: F1 through F10, bs, del,
down, home, end, esc, left, mednext, medpp, medprev, medstop, mute, pgup, pgdn, right, tab, up, volup, voldn.
Actions which play music use the internal player, and are only
available if the internal player is enabled. Valid actions currently
are:
| Keyword | Action |
| mix?... | Create a play a mix with the given options (just use "mix" to get an instant mix). Details on the options are the same
as the HTTP API. |
| mute | Mute application volume. |
| next | Skip to the next track. |
| pause | Pause or resume the current playing song. |
| play | Start playing (same as pressing the Play button). |
| prev | Skip to the previous track. |
| scan | Implements the "Scan & Mix" (green) button. Initiates a scan the first time, and creates a mix on the second press. |
| setRating?rating=# | Rate the currently playing song to # (numbers supported are 0 through 5) |
| stop | Stop playing. |
| toggle | Hide/show the app window. |
| voldn | Decrease application volume. |
| volup | Increase application volume. |
So, a valid line might look like this:
Ctrl+Alt+P play
