Media Key Sharer in Chrome with OffiDocs

DESCRIPTION:

Run the Chrome online web store extension Media Key Sharer using OffiDocs Chromium online.

About: This extension allows you to use your keyboard's media keys to control both media playing on Chrome (YouTube videos etc.

) as well as system controlled media (such as Spotify) from any application on your computer.

It also allows for extra video control via media keys that would' be otherwise impossible.

Features: -Use media keys to control both Chrome and system media.

-Use media keys to skip and close ads on YouTube.

-Use media keys to play next and previous videos on YouTube videos.

-Use media keys to toggle fullscreen video.

-Use media keys to swap videos and tabs.

-Use media keys to fast forward video.

Usage: -To play/pause Chrome media - Tap the "Play/Pause" key once.

-To interact with system media - Double tap the "Stop" key.

-To skip ads or select the next video - Tap the "Next" key once.

-To select the previous video - Tap the "Previous" key once.

-To increase playback speed - Double tap the "Next" key.

-To decrease playback speed - Double tap the "Previous" key.

-To toggle fullscreen video - Double tap the "Play/Pause" key.

-To switch the currently playing video/tab - Double tap the "Stop" key.

After single tapping, you should wait 1 second before tapping again.

Double tabs should happen within 1 second.

The extension icon should become green for 4 seconds, in this time use any media key you wish.

The extension icon will then become orange for the next ~7 seconds (you cannot control system media again in this time).

The extension icon will become white when ready to use again.

Notes: -This extension works by using unintended functionality of the MediaSession API as well as trying to work with completely non-conformed video standards, so unsurprisingly it can be unpredictable.

-Media keys functionality was added with Chrome 73, you must be on this version or higher for the extension to work.

-Media key functionality was also changed lots at the start of its integration, so even on Chrome 73 (and the next few versions) the extension may be even more unpredictable.

-If media key events still don't work, check that both chrome://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling and chrome://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling are set to "enabled".
