Extension summary
The default video and audio player on Learn does not work well enough. It's missing a lot of keyboard shortcuts, seeking tracks is not precise and does not support picture in picture, which most browsers support.
This extension replaces the default player with a video.js player. (https://videojs.com)
Video.js is an extensible video player for browsers, has a lot of plugins, and is used by a lot of companies in production. Watch and Learn leverages it to offer the following features:
- binge mode (or "Learn and Chill")
- playback rates up to 3x on all videos and audios
- default video playback rate using settings in the popup
- picture in picture support
- keyboard shortcuts like 'M' to mute, 'Space' to pause/play, 'F' to fullscreen, and many more using the 'videojs-hotkeys' plugin
User reviews
This extension solves the precision issue for seeking tracks, however it introduces an even more annoying problem. With the extension installed, you can't scroll up/down while watching a learn video without the video volume becoming completely muted. Please fix!
Don't how I did lectures without this before. Truly a life saver for online lectures 🙌🏻
Do you mind adding an option that allows us to go back/forward 10s. Just so when I miss something the prof said, I can click go back 10s instead of estimating where he said it
