Enable only push-to-talk or separate push-to-talk and mute #34

Is there a way to enable only push-to-talk? Or seperate muting and push-to-talk?

Sometimes you press only shortly - two people start talking at the same time, or you only one word ...- this unmutes you completely and you have to press it again.

no, this is not currently possible.

i am not even sure if this would be possible at all. 🤔 the extension only gets a single ‘activate’ signal when the global shortcut is pressed. push-to-talk works by checking multiple of these ‘activate’ signals in a short time frame.

First of all, thanks for this extension!

That seems to be the issue: I would also like to have a specific shortcut for push-to-talk. This would also prevent accidentally leaving the microphone open.

Technically it seems to be easy to implement.
