I'm basically just reposting some of my thoughts from a previous talkback thread, but since ANN seems intent on expanding its video library with both simulcasts and older anime, it would be nice if the embedded player accepted keyboard input (which would translate to commands from most IR remotes). As is, the point-and-click interface is really ill-suited for watching afk with a PC/TV setup (which I imagine will grow more common in coming years). My preferred setup would be:
Play/pause: Enter, and maybe Space, as well Replay (~5 sec): Left arrow Skip forward (~20 sec): Right arrow Volume up: Up arrow Volume down: Down arrow This would bring the ANN player in line with the Crunchy Roll player which, as much as it pains me to say it, is probably my favorite player to date thanks to the keyboard shortcuts. (While I'm at it, I could still go for an ad-free subscription option for the back catalog. Oh, and a pony.  )

We definitely heard your request the first time. Something like this will probably be implemented in the next iteration of the player.

Glad to hear it! Hope no one think I'm being pushy -- I just thought maybe it would be a good idea to post in a new thread in case other users wanted to comment.

Another keyboard shortcut CR has is 'f' for fullscreen (only works for me after I've already fullscreened manually at least once unfortunately... but since fullscreen closes if do anything on my other monitor it can still be handy)

Now I'm able to use it in earnest I'm feeling the lack of keyboard shortcuts more, especially spacebar to pause - even just the ability to pause the video by clicking on the window would be an improvement as the pause button is tiny on a on my 24" monitor.
There were a few times in Tiger and Bunny that text flashed past that I wanted to pause and read - on crunchyroll I would just hit the left arrow to skip back then spacebar to pause. Using this player I have to keep my mouse to hand, drag the slider back manually then fumble for the pause button. |
