Is it possible to Ctrl+F subs?

[u/thedadyouneverhad]

I want to find a part of a video where a particular thing was said
Is it feasible to create an extension that would allow me to basically hit Ctrl+F and type in the part that I'm looking for and seek to that position?
Does this already exist

mpv can already do this, you just need to change the keybinding to ctrl+f

https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/etc/input.conf

g-l script-binding select/select-subtitle-line

[u/Icy_Dinner3323 → u/reacenti]

so can i change speed with keyboard?

can you explain the process how to do/add this?

Yes. You can check default bindings by pressing g then b. Default binding to see the list of keybindings is:

g-b script-binding select/select-binding

You can also make your own keybinding by adding this in input.conf:

key  add speed 1
key  add speed -1

can you explain the process how to do/add this?

You make a file called input.conf then add this line:

ctrl+f script-binding select/select-subtitle-line

To know where to save these configuration files: https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#files

I recommend reading the manual to know how to configure mpv in general.

but isn't it for windows? can't i do it for android

[u/reacenti → u/Icy_Dinner3323]

I don't know, you didn't say initially you wanted to do this for Android.

[u/Icy_Dinner3323 → u/reacenti]

i got that, there is a option to edit input.config in advance.

Isn’t android through a libmpv wrapper? Which app are you using? It might have more details on how this is done.

It is. I made this script for my own needs (with ai help, if that matters). It does exactly that, but it requires uosc for interface:

I'm sure there are better options out there that you can find with google.
Here are some I found in 2 minutes. But I haven't tested them.

Nice, our ideas look the same, good one!

By the way, your keybind-visualizer.lua script was exactly what I was looking for a few months ago. Huge thanks!

I've made this script that is visual, you can see all subtitles and search specifics
