Auto-hides video controls for the Twitch desktop and mobile site after half a second (500 ms) of mouse inactivity over the video player area. Unhide the controls as you would usually do on Twitch.
You're welcome!
Video Speed Controller (for Chrome and Firefox) does this already, and it works not only with Twitch:

For Chrome you got a couple more options, and they also work not only with Twitch:
Universal Video Player Controls:

Custom Rewind:

I tested out all of them with Twitch, and they work.
There's these 3 userscripts as well, which I just found, but I have not tried them out yet:

Nice! I tried the Twitch Seeking userscript and it works beautifully.
Thanks for all the links and thx again for your script!
I'm glad it helped!
You're welcome! :)
Some issues I noticed. When I'm in fullscreen the gui won't appear when using keyboard controls (seeking, changing volume, playing/pausing). I thought this was a cool feature at first but now I'd rather see the playback time when seeking.
Then there's an odd bug that ties in with a Twitch bug. At least I think it's a Twitch bug. Disable this and all other Twitch scripts and extensions. Then play a video. Quickly spam the 'F' key to activate and deactivate full screen. After a few presses, when you exit fullscreen Twitch enables theater mode automatically and collapses the chat window. This is pretty annoying. However, when this script is active, double clicking the video window with mouse to enter/exit fullscreen can also cause Twitch to activate theater mode and collapse chat. I had to reassign the 'F' key and keycode in the script to some other key I won't ever use (Break key) to prevent the double clicking bug.
Can you duplicate this issue?
Hi! Sorry for the late reply, but I've been really busy, and still am, although I'm having a bit of a break now. For the seeking bar part, I'll try to implement it as an option in the Tampermonkey menu, but it will be a low priority, unless more people ask of it.
I've already stated that bug at the time of publishing the script with fewer words in the TODO list:
fix switching between normal mode and theatre mode for desktop site
, but thanks for describing it explicitly.
k thx
Great script!
Thank you for the script. I always hated how long the default time took to hide the controls.
Can you make a Twitch script that lets you seek back/ahead 5 secs. instead of Twitch's default 10 secs?
