For me the volume control shortcut doesn't work

the shortcut for volume is ALT+⬆️ or ALT+⬇️

The volume up and down are actually Ctrl+↑ and Ctrl+↓ (and seems to be not just on the dev branch anymore)

On my linux machine, it's now Alt+↑ and Alt+↓

windows11 + galaxy s21+ env, it works too. Thanks.

Is there a way to simulate pressing power and volume down at the same time?

you can press CTL/ALT and then press P and ^(UP) at the same time

@saktibuana For some reason, it requires you to use the left-ALT, and not the right-ALT. I wish both worked, or just the right one, because I prefer to use a single hand for this.

left alt (lalt) is the default modifier, but it can be changed using --shortcut-mod. Possible keys are lctrl, rctrl, lalt, ralt, lsuper and rsuper. For example:

# use RCtrl for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=rctrl

# or, per your stated preference - use either LAlt or RAlt for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=lalt,ralt

PS - I know I'm responding to a 4+ year old post, but it's less for @AndroidDeveloperLB, who more than likely figured it out by now, and more for the countless scrcpy users that, much like I did, find themselves here due to it being the first Google search result for "scrcpy shortcuts"
