J for 10s jump back

K for pause

L for 10s jump forwards

Also , and . (or < and >, depending on how you look at it) move a paused video frame by frame.

I hate vi shortcuts because they never take non-qwerty keyboard distributions into account and it is unpredictable whether they'll follow position or letter and shortcuts of webpages aren't remappable.

And I hate arrow key shortcuts because they don’t take Raphael into account.

J for increase audio delay

K for decrease audio delay

L for loop (or ctrl+l for view playlist)

Arrow R/L for RR/FF

Up/down for vol up/down.

That's the problem, pasting the https link into VLC never worked for me.

No, the legacy of HJKL in modern tools comes from vi, which itself uses them because the original ADM-3A terminal that Bill Joy used when developing it used HJKL in lieu of arrow keys.

vi was hugely influential and its legacy can be found in many tools beloved by software engineers and other tech-minded folks (and vi's successor, vim, is still widely used to this day).

ahh alright! thanks for the additional info, I mostly know JKL<> from avid media composer which judging by the UI looked ancient to me when my lecturers insisted it's the "industry standard" and "no you can't use Premier Pro you need to learn avid or you won't find a job"
