Idea:

Quickly copy a Youtube or other video site, and open in the MPV media player.

Plugins:

Vim Vixen for Firefox

[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vim-vixen](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vim-vixen)

Surfingkeys for Chrome/Chromium browser

Script:

#!/bin/bash## mpvurlurl=xsel -o -becho $urlmpv $url

Rename /usr/bin/vlc to /usr/bin/vlc.old

Copy script to /usr/bin/vlc and chmod +x /usr/bin/vlc

How to use:

Vim Vixen copy is 'y' Surfingkeys copy is 'yy'

Shortcut to open copied video url is Shift-Mod-p, with Mod being the windows key

Tested with Gnome3, Xfce and i3

In i3, press Mod+v then Mod+s.

Any video played this way will be stacked under Firefox/Chromium for the rest of your session.

Config:

In ~/.config/i3/config

#Paste url into mpv playerbindsym $mod+Shift+p exec vlc

Example screenshots:

For Gnome3 the setting can be reached with Mod (Windows key) and Shortcuts

And the Default Applications need to be changed
