Hotkey won't work with Radeon Relive #5

Hi Marc! Maybe if you have radeon video card you can test this issue otherwise it can't be possible I think. The core of issue is that Hotkey module doesn't allow me to set hotkey that I've already set for Radeon Relive recording trigger. The reason I want to use Relive instead of OBS or something is Relive using the resources of my video card instead of CPU so in that way I'd like to reduce CPU consumption (for example camtasia takes around 15% percent of my 2500k while recording, and obs a little bit less).

Hi Artem, That is very strange, since I would think that it is impossible for an app to block the keys of another app when that other app has focus. Just to make sure you know, hotkey is not very powerful so you have to actually have Rack focused and have the mouse over the Hotkey module (the center part with no components for example) for it to detect the key. Also, if your hotkey has modifiers (Ctrl, Alt, Shift etc), they have to be pressed before hitting the Set button on hotkey.

Thanks! Cheers, Marc
