Hi @Hector118 the team has decided to close the issue that led to this PR. That means this PR unfortunately, will also be closed.

Reasons for closing that issue are:

• Autoplay is rarely toggled, so that removes the need for a shortcut to be there.
• Integrating Autoplay into the video player removes the need for the shortcut.

We apologize for not clearly communicating in the earlier stages of the issue if this is something that the application needed.

Please don't take the closure of the PR in the wrong way because you did a very good job on it. We just failed to decide if this is something that is really needed.

Hopefully, we will see more contributions from you in the future :)
