Extension summary

Analyze keywords

An extension for Netflix that adds 30+ configurable keyboard shortcuts to control playback and more with your keyboard alone. No need to reach for the mouse to turn on subtitles or go to the next episode. Make the shortcuts your own: each action is configurable.

⚠️ PLEASE READ ⚠️ March 28 2022: Netflix is currently blocking rapid time skips, leading to "🛑 ERROR M7375". This is not an issue with the extension, but a protection that Netflix recently added, presumably in order to prevent scripts from downloading movies. An update to this extension is coming soon; in the meantime you might find that some "time skip" shortcuts will not work. Recent testing shows that pressing 0–9 to go to 0%–90% of the video seems to work, but short skips like +/- 10 seconds do not.

Each shortcut is easily configurable with a click on the extension's icon at the right of the address bar. Make sure to "pin" the extension icon for easy access!

Currently available, all configurable:

Play or pause a video: K
Go back 10 seconds: J
Skip forward 10 seconds: L
Go back 60 seconds: Shift-J
Skip forward 60 seconds: Shift-L
(new) View show info or movie info, jump to episode, like/dislike: I
(new) View and edit watch history: H

does not seem to work at all anymore :(

Frame by frame hotkeys don't work well, which are Next frame/ Previous frame, they'll skip one frame and make the film looks like animating-on-twos... Can't stop on the accurate frame I want.
