Is there a list of keyboard shortcuts available somewhere? Can they be edited?

I ask because when I use Migaku, I use the number keys to mark if words in the subtitles are known, tracked, etc. But they also make the video jump around to (random?) places. Is this supposed to happen? Can I turn that “feature” off?

Thanks!

Just adding my own feedback to this thread, I would like keyboard shortcuts to change the speed of the playback, like YouTube has: shift+, to slow down, shift+. to speed up.

When viewing on tablet, simply brushing your finger across the screen sideways jumps to a new position in the video. I don’t like this because it happens a lot by accident and I lose my place.

EDIT: Following up to share a script I wrote to add video speed buttons and hotkeys to the CIJ video player: [Reddit - The heart of the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/CIJapanese/comments/1rz0s2x/script_to_add_video_speed_buttons_and_hotkeys_to/)
