Netflix video player in Chrome - how to seek?

Looks like netflix changed player api. Its what I found:

const videoPlayer = netflix
  .appContext
  .state
  .playerApp
  .getAPI()
  .videoPlayer

// Getting player id
const playerSessionId = videoPlayer
  .getAllPlayerSessionIds()[0]

const player = videoPlayer
  .getVideoPlayerBySessionId(playerSessionId)

Now you can use full player API. For example player.seek or player.getCurrentTime or player.pause, etc...

It will only work in console log of netflix if you want it to work in chrome extension then you need to inject this code in a script tag to make this work.

const videoPlayer = netflix.appContext.state.playerApp.getAPI().videoPlayer;
const player = videoPlayer.getVideoPlayerBySessionId(videoPlayer.getAllPlayerSessionIds()[0]);

player.seek(1091243) //seek to roughly 18mins

player.getCurrentTime() // will give you the current video time.

Finally found a simple solution:

netflix.cadmium.UiEvents.events.resize[1].scope.events.dragend[1].handler(null, {value: 999, pointerEventData: {playing: false}});

You can set:

• position using value property
• playing state using pointerEventData.playing property

It's not complete solution, but can be useful.

Previous version of netflix player was with global object window.netflix.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer. In the recent version it's empty, but you can access this object within events listeners:

1. Open Chrome Developer Tools
2. Select "body" element
3. Select "Event Listeners"
4. Turn on "Framework listeners"
5. Select "keydown" event, "body" - handler p(e), "[[Scopes]]", 1 [[Closure]]
6. You can save this object reference with context menu - "Store as a global variable"

7. Then in new global variable you can get access to temp1.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer

   temp1.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer().getDuration() temp1.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer().seek(2283839); temp1.cadmium.objects.videoPlayer().seek(4283839);

I am not sure is it possible to do fully automatic. You can get access to this listeners by

getEventListeners(document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0]).keydown[0].listener

But I don't know how to get access to scopes variables
