Description from extension meta

Allows you to pause/play YouTube videos with the spacebar, even if the player doesn't have focus and without the annoying scrolling.

Description from store Fixes the common issue with pressing space to pause YouTube videos. This extension refocuses the video when pressing space (unless you're trying to type), preventing the default behaviour that shoots halfway down the webpage. Simple fix for a simple problem. Don't know why YouTube won't fix things themselves.

  • (2023-05-09) Conrad Roberts (glittalogik): This was the 4th extension I tried after YouTube's recent UI fubar, and the only one so far that correctly ignores when you're typing in the comment/search field. You can stop searching, this is the droid you're after ;)
  • (2023-05-08) Iridescent Jen: Fixes the recent change (May 2023) @ Youtube where spacebar now scrolls the page instead of play/pause. I can't imagine why anyone thought that was a good design idea but thankfully this extension fixes it. I can scroll comments, interact on any part of the page and space bar will do what it does best: Play & Pause. Thank you!
  • (2023-05-08) Simon Londoño: A new update to YouTube seems to have made it so when you press space bar the page scrolls down instead of pausing a video. This fix worked for me.
  • (2023-05-07) Nate Maxwell (Nate M): works well for me

  • (2017-10-14) Viu Viu: Единственный, действительно правильно, работающий. Нет двойных пауз Работает при фокусе на комментариях Отключается когда курсор в поле для комента или в верху где поиск
