YouTube Keyboard shortcuts

It's often easier to use keyboard shortcuts then navigating to and through menus and clicks. Most programs have handy little shortcuts to expedite processes, most of which can be configured. Websites have these too although most aren't evident until you accidentally hit upon it or the site points it outright.
Here are a list of YouTube keyboard shortcuts which will lessen the amount of clicking and mousing; some are only accessible through the shortcut keys:

Reguar Shortcuts (only works when focus is on the video)

Space - Pause/resume video
Left/Right Arrow/- Rewind or forward in 5 second increments
Up/Down Arrow - increase or decrease volume

Other Shortcuts (works regardless where the focus is)

J/L - Rewind or forward in 10 second increments

K - Pause/resume video

Wireless Keyboard and Mouse - PCLINE PCL-WOD1


Purely from a review perspective - On the PCLINE PCL-WOD1 wireless keyboard and mouse, while both devices were working, the keyboard wasn't as responsive as with some keys just failing to register while typing and having to retype it. The optical mouse didn't have the smoothest tracking, but, was adequate enough for average use.

Everything was fine at the get go but after a day the keyboard stopped working and I had to resort to my wired keyboard for a while. Nothing much occurred except a drop from a very low height of the keyboard since the purchase, and, I don't know if that was the reason it stopped working or not. Then again, it stopped working a day after that incident. I tried changing batteries, although I'm not sure the pack I had with me was that fresh or
not.

I was almost ready to take it back when I took it back out, put in the batteries I had in when it stopped working, and it started working perfectly. Just to note, the mouse had been working without a hitch all this while.

While searching online for anything to help I came across this resource about the same device. And other searches for a website for the company only turned up a portal for driver downloads. There weren't any drivers available for this particular device. Whilst this post was up, the keyboard has failed again so after much hunting and running around for proof of payment I got it replaced for the same model. 

And after just under a month and half, the keyboard has stopped working again. I've taken it back for a refund, and, at this very moment, I'm back to my old wired keyboard and mouse. I highly suggest to anyone looking at this model not to purchase it and pay the extra € 15-25 for trusted brand name devices.I opted for a Logitech.
