Plugins

Note that http://tengil.org/dev/jwplayer/rite/plugins/shortcuts/ is installed, alongside metaviewer.

KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS (must focus events to the player first, e.g. clicking "play")

Space Toggle play/pause.

Left/Right Seek back/forward a certain amount of seconds. The default is to adjust the step size according to the duration of the video. This can be changed by setting the shortcuts.step or shortcuts.steps flashvars. Since Flash can only seek to a keyframe in the video, the accuracy of this operation depends on the encoding of the video; it will end up on the closest keyframe. In case the closest keyframe to the frame you want to seek to is the same as the current frame, the plugin will extend the seek in the direction you want to go until it finds another keyframe. It will also try to prevent you from seeking past the end of the video (to avoid resetting the player or skipping to the next clip). But this is not always possible.

You can modify the step size by using Shift (x2), Ctrl (x4) and Shift+Ctrl (x1/4). On a Mac you shold use the Command key instead of Ctrl.

. (dot) Step advance. This advances the playhead between 1/10 and 2/10 of a second. Not frame advance but somewhere up the same alley.

: (colon) Slow motion, or continuous step advance. Leave slow motion by pressing any key. Slow motion must be enabled by setting the shortcuts.slowmotion flashvar to 'true'.

R Restart the video from the beginning.

Up/Down Increse/decrese volume.

M Mute/unmute.

F Enter fullscreen. You can also use the Esc key to toggle fullscreen on/off.

N or > Next item in playlist.

P or < Previous item in playlist.

FLASHVARS

shortcuts.step Step size in seconds. This is how far the left/right keys will seek. See also shortcuts.steps.

shortcuts.steps Step size in number of steps. The step size will be adjusted according to the length of the video. The video is divided into this many steps. For a 2 minutes long video a steps of 10 will result in a step size of 12 seconds. This is an alternative to the shortcuts.step falshvar. Default is 10 steps.

shortcuts.minstep Minimum step size when using the shortcuts.steps flashvar. Default is 5 seconds.

shortcuts.maxstep Maximum step size when using the shortcuts.steps flashvar. Default is 30 seconds.

shortcuts.slowmotion Enable slow motion by setting this flashvar to 'true'. Please read the remarks below before enabling this feature.

shortcuts.slowmotionvolume Volume while in slow motion (0-100). Default is 1. If you set volume to 0 (zero) you will most likely get a mute icon displayed on screen (which kind of ruins the experience).
