No more scrolling down the page when you hit the spacebar on YouTube
Annoyed when YouTube scrolls down the page instead of pausing your video when you hit the spacebar? Well, you won't be any more.

расширение работает но не всегда останавливает, есть лучше этого, называется YouTube Spacebar Pause
ça marche encore moins bien que sans: parfois l'espace sert déjà à mettre pause, du coup les deux pauses s'annulent, du coup l'espace ne marche toujours pas, heureusement que la touche k existe
Не работает, пользуюсь https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-spacebar-pause/kelhcneanfdjfbneoljbgpahgfcacdhh
Doesnt work. Instead, disables spacebar during writing.
На момент марта 2017 не работает
does not work on MSNBC, or anything else i use...
not working...
Ok that was just stupid. Whats the point if oyu can press spaces in your comments, idiot?
Не останавливает.
Doesn't work with magic actions, I can play the video, but can't pause it afterwards, unless I click, exactly opposite to the point of the extension. Hope to get it fixed, been looking for an extension like this, the idea is AWESOME! but unfortunately didn't work :/
Just use the K key.
doesn't work space bar keeps scrolling down no puses on videos, lame
Can't use space-bar when searching or writing comment. Utterly useless
Yeah.. nope.
funktioniert nicht, es wird lediglich das Pausezeichen im Bildschirm angezeigt, das Video hält allerdings nicht an. Schrott
It's good until you need to write a comment or search for a video.
Can't use the spacebar when searching.
It keeps the spacebar from working when you do a search.
СПАСИБО ОГРОМНОЕ, автор я тебя обожаю!!! наконец-то при нажатии пробела ставится пауза а не пролистывается вниз страница, огромный респект!!!
As others have said, it takes over the spacebar completely so you can't search for videos or write comments. Huge flaw and a dealbreaker when it comes to using the extension.
This extension is much better: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-spacebar-pausing/bkpindoeklkmcchcidehelnihghppcdg?hl=en
Not Working
2 stars for a good thought, It does what it says. Upon pressing Spacbar, it prevents the annoying scrolling and pauses youtube instead. But... when you enter text in the search field, guess what happens when you press space before entering the next word... ?
Does what it says on the box. 5/5 would install again.
it doesnt work in full mode
