Browser Media Controls
by Teddy
Overview
Take your Stream Deck experience to the next level with the ultimate browser media controller. This plugin creates a direct, high-speed bridge between your browser and your stream deck, giving you tactile, zero-latency control over YouTube, Twitch, and Netflix without ever leaving your game or workspace.
The Power of the Dial
Experience fluid media navigation with multi-function rotary controls:
Precision Seeking: Rotate to scrub through videos with ease.
Smart Volume: Hold and rotate to fine-tune audio levels.
Instant Action: Tap to Play/Pause or toggle Mute instantly.
Dynamic Visuals: The touch strip displays real-time progress bars, volume percentages, and scrolling titles.
Integrated Key Support
Not a Dial user? No problem. Use dedicated keys for total control:
Media Controls Key: Control current playing media by clicking, double clicking and long pressing. (Customizable)
this allows user to use Keys instead of Dials for Non-StreamDeck+ users.
Media Controls Tile: Allows you to control multiple tabs of the same website at the sametime.
Media Info Display: See exactly what is playing right on your key.
Single-Action Keys: Map specific buttons for Next, Previous, Seek, or Volume.
Universal Compatibility: Works seamlessly across supported streaming platforms.
Key Features
Smart Tab Detection: Intelligently finds your active media tab even if it is buried under other windows.
Website Locking: Pin a specific key or dial to a chosen platform (e.g., Always controls Twitch tab).
Background Operation: Control playback while focused on other applications or full-screen games.
Optimized Performance: Lightweight architecture ensures zero-latency interaction.
The Roadmap (hopefully)
Stremio Integration: Control the Stremio desktop app directly.
More Keys: Focus Tab to bring media to the front, Theater Mode toggles, and Instant Close for media tabs. (Some keys might not get implemented)
