Extension summary

Analyze keywords

The Chrome browser includes native support for several media formats, such as mp3 audio and webm video. This is very useful as it allows for streaming of audio and video in the browser without the need to download the whole file, and without using a plugin.

However, the built in media controls can be very imprecise, especially with longer files such as podcasts. Media Controller solves this issue by providing buttons and keyboard shortcuts that skip by increments of five seconds and up.

Note: To enable the extension when playing local files, check the "Allow access to file URLs" checkbox in the extensions manager.

what chrome lacks

Rod Butrymowicz, 2022-04-28

finally a solution for webm volume

八餅, 2018-11-11

This serves my purpose well and a great improvement over the crappy built-in player. I agree with Emmanuel in that key mapping would be a great addition, particularly to jump backwards and forwards in the audio playback. Clicking those buttons gets a bit tedious after a while. It would be nice to have options to speed up or slow down the audio too if it could be done.
