How to forward a Youtube video by keyboard percentage. You know that you can play a youtube video according to the desired percentage through your computer keyboard.
The web version of YouTube is much more flexible and you can forward a video with keyboard shortcuts.
Keyboard shortcuts don't limit you to just 5 or 10 second hops. Instead, you can skip ahead 10%, 20%, 30%… 90% of the video. This makes the controls more useful and specific to the length of a video. For example, if you want to advance a thirty minute video, you can do it by a certain percentage.
Forward a Youtube video by percentage of its duration
Keyboard shortcuts only work when a YouTube video is playing. These are the numeric keys located at the top of the keyboard. Button 1, when tapped, will skip 10% of the video. Similarly, 2, 3, 4, ... 9 will jump forward 20%, 30%, 40%,… 90% of the video.
I left and right arrow keys instead they allow you to send it forward or backward five seconds.
If you have a number pad on your keyboard, you can use the number keys on the same effect. These keyboard shortcuts can be used once on a video, that is, if you tap the 3 key to skip 30% of the video, you can't tap it again to skip the next 30% of it. Once you've skipped forward, keyboard shortcuts don't reset the length of the video which can skip forward than what's left.
