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:

KeywordAction
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.
muteMute application volume.
nextSkip to the next track.
pausePause or resume the current playing song.
playStart playing (same as pressing the Play button).
prevSkip to the previous track.
scanImplements 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)
stopStop playing.
toggleHide/show the app window.
voldnDecrease application volume.
volupIncrease application volume.

So, a valid line might look like this:

Ctrl+Alt+P play
