New Version 2.4.0 supporting global hotkeys

[xMRi]

Now it is much easier to control the PTZ camera with global hotkeys.
They work from any program that has the focus. Because a lot of hotkeys are predefined by Windows I found that the Windows-Key + all numeric keys on the numeric key pad are not used. Please note that, the normal digits 0-8 are different from the numeric keys 0-8 on the numeric key pad. So the Num-Lock key must be used, to use the PTZControl global Hotkeys. If Num-Lock isn't set, the numeric key pad works like normal cursor keys.

• The camera 1 global hot keys are just the Windows key + 0-8 on the numeric key pad.

  • Windows Key + 0 (Home) = Camera 1 Home
  • Windows Key + 1-8 (Memory) = Camera 1, Memory position 1-8

• The camera 2 global hot keys are just the Windows key + Ctrl + 0-8 on the numeric key pad.

  • Windows Key + Ctrl + 0 (Home) = Camera 2 Home
  • Windows Key + Ctrl + 1-8 (Memory) = Camera 2, Memory position 1-8

• The camera 3 global hot keys are just the Windows key + Alt + 0-8 on the numeric key pad.

  • Windows Key + Alt + 0 (Home) = Camera 2 Home
  • Windows Key + Alt + 1-8 (Memory) = Camera 2, Memory position 1-8
