Trouble with custom hotkeys - OBS Studio

[Disasterofpuppets]

Hi all,

I’m using a macro keyboard that has special keys assigned to it.

Example. Button #1 sends ‘F24’ Button #2 sends ‘ Shift and F24’ at the same time (and they are released at the same time.

Problem is anything I try to assign the ‘Shift + F24’ eg change to scene ‘PC’. It triggers whatever has just ‘F24’ as the hotkey

So Button 1 is assigned to scene ‘Ending’ Button 2 is assigned to scene ‘PC’

Pressing button 1 will go to ‘Ending’ or do nothing if already on that scene

Pressing button 2 will go to ‘Ending’ instead of ‘PC’ regardless of current scene.

There was no issues with this setup and SLOBS.

The only of thing I notice is that instead of ‘F24’ showing as the assigned hotkey it says ‘OBS_KEY_F24’ in SLOBS it just said ‘F24’.

I wonder if there’s a setting file I can removed the OBS_KEY part from as a test.

I also tried replacing Shift with Control and same issue occurs.

Any other ideas?

Thank you

Try running OBS not as admin and see if it works this way.
If you have a companion app along with your macro keyboard, and this companion app injects the keypresses into Windows, OBS will not see the keypresses if OBS is running as admin while the companion app isn't. You have to either run both as admin or both as not admin.
SLOBS works, probably because you start SLOBS not as admin.
