Overview

Improve hardware media key handling!

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.
