Can't use ODeck for OBS hotkeys if OBS isn't focused. Am I missing something? #40

Summary

I have ALT+SHIFT+F1 set to switch to a scene in OBS. I have configured ODeck to send that same key combo.

When OBS has focus, I tap the button on my phone and the hotkey works. If OBS is not in focus it does not. When I do the hotkey manually on my keyboard, it works regardless of focus.

Have I missed something obvious here? This seems like a very basic use-case and I don't see an open issue for a bug like this. On Windows 11, tried running ODeck as admin as well.

Have the same issue as well

I have the same thing as well. It's weird it seems that it actively will only send the command to the active window, instead of just sending it on a system level. Perhaps it should be configurable on the hotkey config if it should send it to system or to the focused application.

Since not even this works, and the feature request for a direct integration with OBS hasnt progressed, I cant use ODeck for what I need it for at the moment, which is sad.
