Description

Lets you control Youtube, Pandora, Bandcamp, TidalHiFi and Google Play Music website media players using the media keys on your keyboard.

If you're not using Windows or compatible Linux environment, then this plugin requires that a browser window is active.

DBus support on Linux

This add-on listens for global media key presses on Linux via DBus and as such, requires the glib, gobject and gio shared libraries to be installed and available to Firefox. On Ubuntu, these can all be installed simultaneously by installing the libglib2.0-0 package, if not already installed.

This feature has been tested on Ubuntu 15.04 with Firefox 40.0a2.

Building and testing

This add-on utilises jpm, the Jetpack Manager for Node.js, for building, testing and packaging. Follow instructions at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/SDK/Tools/jpm for installation and use. Of particular note, see the Developing without browser restarts section as testing certain online media players require authentication.
