Stream Keys - Video Keyboard Controls
Extension Actions
Keyboard shortcuts and position restore for YouTube, Disney+, HBO Max, and BBC iPlayer video players.
Tired of pressing Space and accidentally skipping ahead, restarting a movie, or triggering a random button? Frustrated that keyboard shortcuts stop working after exiting fullscreen?
Stream Keys fixes broken keyboard behavior on streaming sites. Your shortcuts always do what you expect – play, pause, toggle subtitles, or go fullscreen – no matter what's focused on the page.
Supported Services:
Disney+ • HBO Max • BBC iPlayer • YouTube (position restore)
Key Features:
• Space always plays or pauses, even when a button is focused
• F toggles fullscreen—and shortcuts keep working after you exit
• C toggles subtitles based on your preferred languages
• Arrow keys rewind or fast-forward on Disney+ and BBC iPlayer
• Media keys work for play/pause and skipping
Never Lose Your Place—Position Restore:
Press R to instantly jump back to where you were. Perfect for when you overshoot a skip, accidentally seek too far, or want to rewatch a scene and then return.
The position menu shows:
• Your starting position when the video loaded
• Your manually saved position (press S to bookmark any moment)
• Up to 3 recent positions saved before you seeked
• How long ago each position was saved
• One-key access (press 0–4 to jump)
Press S anytime to save your current position – great for marking a favorite scene or keeping your place before exploring. Stream Keys also automatically save positions whenever you use the timeline or skip buttons – so there's always somewhere to go back to. It's like undo for video navigation.
Customizable:
• Set your preferred subtitle languages in the extension settings
• Configure custom skip duration (5–120 seconds)
• Enable or disable individual services
• Turn off position history tracking if you don't need it
Lightweight, privacy-friendly, and unobtrusive. No tracking, no ads – just reliable keyboard shortcuts.
