Feature Request - Keyboard shortcut to reload the most recent file.

[Tony Mah]

I am playing with OBS FMP4 recording format. I discovered that I could open the FMP4 in Avidemux Mac while it was still recording and edit the file. I can open the same file again and it will open to the latest recording time for more editing. To edit short sports hilights to social media quickly it will be good it have a shortcut to reload the latest file.

Currently there is no shortcut for recent files.

Just a note on my previous reply in your Main Version thread.

Autohotkey is Windows only (no mention of Mac in that thread). If you do manage to to encourage the implementation of the Restore previous session shortcut key, you would be advised to take a look at Keyboard Maestro for Mac. I've no experience personally, but this is generally the tool Mac users are pointed to as an Autohotkey substitute.

Why do I need a third party application?

Right now if I
1. Open the fmp4 file
2. Go to Recent files with my mouse and click on the first file it will reload.

If there is a keyboard shortcut built into Mist to do this, it is all I need.

In your previous reply you suggested you needed a shortcut key for "Restore previous session", to use in combination with Close video (Ctrl+w).

The method szlldm suggested works!

So my request is a shortcut for Restore previous session!

I suggested Autohotkey because it can apply multiple keystrokes from a single key. And also relevent to your original post, it can automate that process periodically.

It appears a simpler solution is all that is required. I see eumagga0x2a has now responded, so hopefully you will achieve a satisfactory outcome.

Yes, thanks, so, it is a MP4 file. The big plan is to add keyboard shortcuts to run custom scripts. This would en passant allow to cover your feature request.

Thank-you. Any ball park time line for this? 3M-6M-12M?
