Ο Google Chrome 77, made the Global Media Controls feature available for the first time in fixed channel. Before the new feature was only available in the Canary branch of Chrome. Let's see what it's like to enable it.
Google has launched the "Global Media Controls" feature as an experimental feature that displays a popup similar to the one displayed when you press the multimedia keys on your keyboard.
When enabled, the feature adds a new button to line tools of the proletterof browsing. Clicking this button opens a drop-down menu that lists your current media sessions (eg a YouTube video sitting in browser tabs) along with play buttonstreatments/pause and so on.
This allows you to quickly access and control each play without having to go to the tab. Global Media Controls can be activated with a flag.
Google Chrome has many useful options, which are experimental. They are not supposed to be used by the common people users, but friends of the new features can turn them on very easily.
These experimental features can greatly improve the experience of Chrome browser users with additional features. To enable or disable an experimental mode, you can use hidden options called flags.
To enable Global Media Controls in Google Chrome, you must update your browser in the 77 version.
Then open Chrome and type the following in the address bar: chrome: // flags / # global-media-controls
Select Enable from the drop-down list next to the 'Global Media Controls' line and restart the browser when prompted.
That's it! Now, open a video on YouTube and a new play button will appear on the toolbar.
Click this button to see the list of media playing on your computer.
To deactivate the function, open the flag page and change the option from Enabled to Default.
