How to seek a Video In Chrome?

Questions & Suggestions
1

Any way to trigger through Keyboard Maestro to seek a video playback by (15, 30 etc seconds) forwards and backward? Without the use of the mouse click automation.

Similarly but a side note: any way to trigger picture in picture from Chrome, the way it would work from Safari? Curious if there’s a script to automate this.

Thanks for the help.

Hey @aisync,

Probably not unless the video player supports JavaScript or keyboard shortcuts.

I think that's entirely under the control of the embedded video player, so probably not.

So keyboard shortcuts for now would work but the problem is that the video window (aka Google Chrome) and the proper tab needs to be in focus for the shortcut to work. I've tried passing the shortcut via KM to the Chrome when it's not being focused and it doesn't seem to work.
