Exactly what I need. Thanks for your great work!

Keeps keyboard focus on the video player, allowing FFW RWD and pause commands to work.
Does *almost* everything I would want or expect it to do. It focuses upon initial page load, and even upon switching back to the youtube tab. But what it won't do is focus when switching from another window back to the browser.
Highly underrated, essential extension
Doesn't work until comments will load, I have to wait 3-4 seconds, its very annoying(((

Simple and effective.
So awesome I will share it on my FB.
То что доктор прописал.
Awesome I no longer have to click in the video player area first anymore to get the keyboard shortcuts to start working. Thank you jokob!
Seems like there's an extension for every nitpick I have about youtube. Thank you for this.
