  • Hotkeys (Windows). A new Hotkeys page: bind a key, a key combination (Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Win + a key), a single
    key such as Left Ctrl or Caps Lock, or the middle / back / forward mouse button to any of 26 actions. They work while
    a game, Discord or any other app is in front, and the app still gets the key.
    • Microphone:
      • mute / unmute all microphones or any one of them (microphone 1, 2, 3...)
      • push to talk and push to mute (hold)
      • virtual mic, noise removal, noise gate, mic EQ, compressor, de-esser, auto level, auto mix and hear myself on / off
      • noise remover (next or a specific one), voice style (next or a specific one)
    • Headphones & 3D:
      • Game 3D audio on / off
      • 3D preset, headphone profile or Auto EQ (next or a specific one)
      • natural sound for videos on / off, headphone EQ on / off
      • test footsteps
      • mute / unmute any output
    • Camera:
      • background (next or a specific one)
      • face tracking, auto light and mirror on / off
    • StreamLite: show / hide the window.
    • Each hotkey row has the action, what it applies to (which mic, output, profile...) and its key. Click the key
      button and press what you want; Esc cancels. Two hotkeys on the same key are marked.
    • A small note near the bottom of the screen says what a hotkey did ("Microphone 2 muted"). It never takes the focus
      and can be turned off.
    • Mutes and fades are smooth (~5 ms), so muting never clicks. Push to talk acts the moment the key moves, even while
      StreamLite's window is busy. Mutes start off every time StreamLite starts.
  • The Microphones list shows "muted" / "push to talk" on the mic rows, and status.txt shows mute states and how many
    hotkeys are bound.
  • Update now or Skip. When a new version is out, StreamLite now asks inside its window, a few seconds after it
    starts (and every 6 hours while it runs): a prompt at the top of the window with Update now and Skip. It no
    longer installs updates by itself and no longer opens a separate window to ask.
    • Update now shows the download in the prompt, installs and restarts.
    • Skip doesn't ask again until a newer version is out; Settings > Check now still offers it.
    • While StreamLite runs in the tray, a note says an update is waiting, and the prompt is there when you open the
      window.
  • Settings can't silently reset any more. If the settings file is damaged (half-written, or edited by hand),
    StreamLite now loads the last copy that worked instead of starting from defaults, and keeps the damaged file as
    settings.broken-*.json.
