Media Keys for Youtube™ Extension

Use the following keys to pause, rewind the video forward and backward, even when the youtube.com window / tab is not active.

Play/Pause ⏯ - works like Space-key.
Previous ⏮- works like LeftArrow-key (backward 5 seconds), long press switches to the previous video.
Next ⏭ - works like RightArrow-key (forward 5 seconds), long press switches to the next video.

Be careful, the extension takes some time to load when the page loads.
Tested with Windows 10 only.

taktak altaktak (ID: 000000112264a231) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/10/2023 When i click Play/Pause ⏯ media key - it gets playing 2x speed. Please help??

Kristopher Yang (ID: 000000084d5fc0f0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/04/2023 Amazing, exactly what I was looking for. My play/pause has always worked with YouTube, but never the back/forward. This lets me use the play/pause AND the forward/back while still having focus on another app. Great work - thanks!
