Question / Help logitech G19 G Keys & OBS Hotkeys

[Frank Anderson]

Hi Fellow streamers and support,

I am trying to bind Ctrl + Num 8 for Mute/Unmute Mic, it works fine on the keyboard, but when binded to the G Key, it doesnt work, I have to spam it like 10 times for it to do something, then I'll see the mic go mute, unmute, mute, unmute..

Any ideas? or workaround? I have tried using both the Keystroke and Multi Key macro and both doesn't work well.

Thanks Advance

In Logitech's software you need to add delays between the keypresses for them to register properly. For example:

Ctrl down
(200ms)
Num8 down
(200ms)
Num8 up
(200ms)
Ctrl up

Hi Sapiens,

using LGS 8.55.137, I have already tested that method, it still doesn't work.. I did find a odd work around, I have 2 G-KEYS programed, one to mute mic, one to mute desktop, Ctrl+NUM8 and Ctrl+NUM9 respectively, if I press "mute mic", nothing happens, but if I spam it, it might mute it, but then again, it might just go bonkers.. But if I press the 2 G-KEYs in a way like I press Ctrl V or Ctrl C, ie; G9 and G10 key, I press G10 then press G9, the mic mutes, if I press it again, it un-mutes, perfectly, everytime....

ITs weird, but its a work around and it temporarily works, I am testing a blue yeti which has a built in mute button, so that mute mic hotkey might be irrelevant to me pretty soon.

for reference, Im using a G19, original, not the G19s, Win7 Ult SP1
