Options: - Always visible controls: it's not necessary to hover over the video for the controls to appear. - Hide title and channel: when not hovering over the video, this option will hide the video information that overlays the video. - Control volume with Arrow Up/Down: allow you to control the volume with arrow keys without holding shift/cmd, it is optional, as many users use it to scroll between shorts. - Disable infinite loop. Keyboard shortcuts: - Left/Right arrow keys to backward/forward the video by 5 seconds. - Shift/Cmd + Up/Down arrow keys to increase/decrease the volume. - "M" to mute/unmute the video. - Spacebar to pause/resume the video.
