Browser Media Controls

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 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 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)
