Please, bring this extension back to life. It was sooo useful!

Perfect for play/pause videos while gaming on fullscreen/multi-monitor. Keyboard shortcuts can be edited at: chrome://extensions/shortcuts Example: [CTRL]+[Space] (also change "In Chrome" to "Global".)

The extension is great. One shortcoming however is that I can't map media play/pause button to it. It shows that it is mapped to the media play/pause button but pressing the button does nothing. Would love to get this fixed in the near future so that I can use my bluetooth headset to control playback. Still a fantastic extension and would highly recommend.

Uso para pausar a aba oculta, funciona muito bem.

Love it when it works, but more often than not when I click on it, it comes up blank. I have a number of videos up at one time, it has handled 2/3 videos before, so not sure what has happened.

Great... Just what i was looking for.. Simple, fast and clean.. If you have only one video open it allows to Play/Pause with just a click on the extension, while if you have more instances of youtube open at the same time it will show a list of the videos playing and you'll be able to Play/Pause and switch the volume On/Off It would be perfect if you could add the current timing of the video (ex. 2:01-3:45, maybe on the same row as Play/Pause and volume but on the right) without slowering this extension, otherwise no problem :) NOTE: In order to use this extension, after installing it you have to close and reopen Chrome Good job guys :)

That's the perfect solution for when i'm listening to full concerts and don't want to go to the tab to pause the video. I don't know if this is being maintained yet, but an option to advance/go back 10 seconds would be perfect.

Hotkey is super awesome :D Love it! Make sure you check the hamburger menu (top left) if you don't find it at the bottom of the screen like some users suggested.

Works great - but only for 2 videos. That's not bad, but it hard-maps to the first two videos you have open, i.e. if you have 3 videos open next to each other in a window, you can only control the leftmost ones, the rightmost can't be controlled. I wish it just mapped to the currently playing video. Also no play next/previous buttons is eh

I use this extension ALL THE TIME. I setup the global hot key and now I can quickly pause/play my YouTube music no matter what I'm doing on my computer.

Works great, especially when you set it up as a global key! Just what I was looking for. However, is there a way to make it recognize which video is actually currently playing instead of having to move the video tab to the left that you want to control? Go to: chrome://extensions/ Scroll down to bottom > Click "Keyboard shortcuts".
