Description

Keyboard navigation provides all web and app users with a fast keyboard-only navigation capability and is also part of the web accessibility features–it enables users with disabilities to fully control their website or app access through the keyboard.

By default, users can only navigate to links, buttons, and form controls with a keyboard. The navigation order in which interactive items receive keyboard focus has to be logical and intuitive. Generally, keyboard navigation logic needs to follow the visual horizontal and vertical flow of the page, for example, left to right and top to bottom, header first followed by the main and then the page navigation.

The MediaPlayer keyboard navigation is enabled through the navigatable option, as demonstrated in this demo.

This MediaPlayer example is part of a unique collection of hundreds of jQuery demos, with which you can see all Kendo UI for jQuery components and their features in action. View the source code of the demos from the library or directly adapt, and edit them and their theme appearance in Kendo UI for jQuery Dojo or ThemeBuilder.

The MediaPlayer supports the following keyboard shortcuts:

Focus

  • Alt + W Focuses the component.

Supported Keys and User Actions

  • Space Toggles Play and Pause.
  • Enter Opens the video in the FullScreen mode.
  • Esc Exits the FullScreen mode.
  • M Toggles Mute and Unmute.
  • Right Arrow Seeks forward.
  • Left Arrow Seeks backward.
  • Up Arrow Increases the volume.
  • Down Arrow Decreases the volume.
  • Ctrl + 1 Decreases the video quality.
  • Ctrl + 2 Increases the video quality.
