Don't reinvent the wheel. Lots of people know these shortcuts. Use them
In the mobile app, each tap on the left of the video skips backwards 10 seconds. Tapping 4 times skips back 40 seconds.
In the desktop player, these seem to be the most useful.
Toggle play/pause - k
Rewind 10 seconds - j
Fast forward 10 seconds - l
Previous frame (while paused) - ,
Next frame (while paused) - .
Decrease playback rate - < (SHIFT+,)
Increase playback rate - > (SHIFT+.)
Seek to specific point in the video - 0..9 (7 advances to 70% of duration)
Toggle full screen - f
Close miniplayer or current dialog - ESCAPE
Toggle mute - m
If the video supports captions, toggle captions ON/OFF - c

I'd like to add to this a keyboard shortcut to show/hide the sidebar.
I support the same shortcuts as they follow a similar convention for some editing software. I really need to be able to view video frame-by-frames, so using the shortcut , for previous frame and . for the next frame is important to me.
