They must be prefixed to the actual key name, where each modifier is followed by a ``+`` (for example ``ctrl+q``). +The ``Shift`` modifier requires some attention. For instance ``Shift+2`` should +usually be specified as key-name ``@`` at ``input.conf``, and similarly the +combination ``Alt+Shift+2`` is usually ``Alt+@``, etc. Special key names like +``Shift+LEFT`` work as expected. If in doubt - use ``--input-test`` to check +how a key/combination is seen by mpv. + Symbolic key names and modifier names are case-insensitive. Unicode key names are case-sensitive because input bindings typically respect the shift key. |
