I have a shortcut set up in VMix and assigned to the "0" key on the keypad.

When I try to send the keypress fuction via TCP to "press" that key, I get an acknowledgement from the TCP server, but the shortcut is not triggered.

I've also tried using SendKeys (also with no luck)

From the commandline (piping string to ncat for windows) where 192.168.128.40 is my Vmix automation machine (firewall is off)

c:\echo FUNCTION Keypress 0 \r\n | ncat 192.168.128.40 8099
Version OK 24.0.0.63
FUNCTION OK Completed


Any help is appreciated!

I believe that the Keypress for "0" on the keypad is "NumPad0". Try replacing that in your string.. I'm not currently at a vMix computer but I think that should work :)
