Distraction-Free Player & Notes
Immerse yourself in focused video playback with auto-resume, timestamped markdown note-taking, pinned note highlights, and note exporting.
Distraction-Free Video Stage#
Mudawim's video stage isolates the YouTube embed from algorithmic sidebars, recommendations, and distracting comments.
Player Features:#
- Auto-Resuming: Automatically resumes exactly where you left off during your last session.
- Speed Stepper: Switch between 0.75x, 1.0x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, and 2.0x playback speeds.
- Theater & Fullscreen Mode: Maximize the video canvas while keeping the note-taking dock accessible.
Timestamped Markdown Notes#
Taking notes without time context makes reviewing technical tutorials frustrating. In Mudawim, every note can be anchored to the exact second in the video:
- Click the Timestamp Note button or press keyboard hotkey `N`.
- A new note card is created with the current playback time pre-filled (e.g.
[14:32]). - Write your summary using standard Markdown (code blocks, bullet lists, bold text, quotes).
- Whenever you click on the timestamp badge in the future, the video instantly seeks to that exact second!
Tagging & Pinning Critical Notes#
- Pinning: Click the Pin icon to pin essential formulas, cheat sheets, or key code snippets to the top of your course notes.
- Color Tags: Categorize notes with tags like
Bug Fix,Key Concept,Exam Review, orCode Snippet.
Global Notes Hub & Search#
Access the dedicated Notes Hub from the sidebar to:
- Search across all notes across all workspaces simultaneously.
- Filter notes by workspace, playlist, pinned status, or tag.
- Click any note to jump straight into the corresponding video lesson at the saved timestamp.
