Global hotkeys for YouTube & Bilibili picture-in-picture: toggle, pause/play, and skip back/forward. Following a tutorial or guide while working in another app? You probably need to pause the video often—but that means switching to the browser, pressing pause, then switching back. That breaks your flow. PiP Controller lets you control Picture-in-Picture and playback on YouTube and bilibili with global keyboard shortcuts, without bringing the browser window to the foreground. One monitor: Keep the PiP window on the side while you stay in your app—use hotkeys to control the video. Two monitors: Move or enlarge PiP on your second screen; hotkeys still work in the background. What you can do Alt+W — Toggle Picture-in-Picture (open / close) Alt+A / Alt+D — Seek backward / forward (step size is configurable in the extension popup; default 5 seconds) Alt+S — Pause / play Good for: Learning from tutorials while practicing, following game guides while playing, or any time the video keeps playing but your focus is in another app. Setup (important) Open chrome://extensions/shortcuts Find PiP Controller and set all four commands to Global (otherwise shortcuts won’t work when another app is focused) Seek forward may show as “Not set”: Chrome reserves Alt+D for the address bar—click the pencil icon to bind it manually (or choose another shortcut) Open a video on YouTube or bilibili, leave that tab open, then switch to your other app Click the extension icon in the toolbar for in-popup help, UI language (Chinese / Japanese / English), and seek-step settings. Supported sites YouTube (youtube.com) bilibili (bilibili.com) Open source Source code, feedback, and updates on GitHub: https://github.com/jotenbai/picture-in-picture-controller Privacy: The extension only stores your settings locally (such as language and seek step). It does not upload personal data to the developer’s servers. Permissions are used only to inject control scripts on the sites above and remember which tab has the active video.
