Video Player for Local Files Extension

An easy-to-use and very lightweight video player for local video/audio files, powered by Web technology. It works completely offline. In addition to using the mouse, it supports many useful keyboard shortcuts, as well as a few simple settings.

Homepage: https://webvideoplayer.org/

Updates:
1.0.0 (May 1, 2023): Support playlist UI and loop playback mode.

FAQ:
1.How to open the player?
Click the extension icon.

2.How to open files?
• Click the \"Folder\" icon in the panel
• Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd + O
• Drag and drop files to the player

3.Subtitles
Independent or embedded subtitles are not supported. Maybe I will support independent subtitle files in the future.
Of course, if the subtitles are already in the video stream, they can be displayed.

4.Online streaming media
Currently only supports local file playback. There are no plans to support online streaming media.

5.Video format and codec
Because the underlying core functions are completely implemented by the browser, only some video formats and codec are supported. In addition, it doesn't support multiple audio tracks switching.

MD Raisul Islam Rimon (ID: 0000007087f4e046) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/20/2023 A great extension for chrome. thank you.

Raj Sekhar (ID: 00000063c02926e1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/12/2023 I wanted to play video and share its audio as well in meeting. Only tabs allow to share audio, not local apps like vlc. So i could play video in browser and share the tab to present video and audio both, but it lacked basic functions like forward etc. This app really helped me to present video and audio.

Sean Nilan (ID: 0000003cd9383642) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/09/2023 It's a pretty good extension/app, thank you. I really wish it was open-source though. Not having subtitle support is a dealbreaker for a lot of users. It would also be nice to have the ability to change the built-in shortcuts. And a shortcut "?" to display the shortcuts in a modal over the screen like SurfingKeys and Vimium. When you're getting started with an app it makes it a lot easier than having to load a separate page
