- Rated 4 out of 5by Atlas, 9 months agoLovely add-on but why change the UI from the default browser player? The default browser player had more options (like open video in new tab option that I used quite frequently) compared to this new UI that not only looks worse but is less functional as well. Having to find an empty pixel in between the buttons to be able to right click to see other options significantly dampens the functionality.

posted 9 months agoHi Atlas,
Thanks for you review. There were some issues with the native browser behavior, I'm unable to change. Using a custom UI, I have full control over the player. I want to include as many missing feature, like speed-control in the UI, but this will take some time. To make everyone happy, the next update will include a option to switch between the custom or native UI. You can choose whatever fits your needs.
I'll find some time this weekend to finish and release the update. Until then, have a good time :-) - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17416068, 9 months agolatest UI update no longer allows you to use the advanced browser options by right clicking on the progress bar (speed, PiP and others)
mandatory downgrade 🤷🏻♂️Developer response

I had to build a custom UI to avoid some issues with the custom browser behavior. I'm working on re implementing these features in my custom UI again. Fullscreen will work in the next release, PiP and speed controls are planned. You will be able to select the controls, you want to see in the player bar via the extension-icon-menu.
Edit: I added a hotfix in v1.1.0: You can now right-click in between the control elements. Not the best solution, but is should help you until I'll implement more features. - Rated 3 out of 5by ._., 9 months agoIt's annoying that the interface pops up every time the video loops. I would appreciate an option to change it.

posted 9 months agoHi, thanks for your comment. I'll look into this, but it looks like Firefox behavior. I've created an issue on GitHub (#13).
I might have to build my own UI to have full control over this. - Rated 5 out of 5by MichalH, 9 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Durul, 10 months agoIt does what it says. And it also remembers the audio level for every video so it fixed the lack of instagram main volume issue for me. Really happy.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Felpies, a year agoWorks as expected, adds a progress and volume slider underneath the videos, including reels, it's baffling that in this day and age Facebook expects you to lower you whole system or whole browser volume to not get your eardrums ruptured when watching a video, or that you need to rewatch it from the beginning to see an specific part of the video, oh well, that's enshitfication for you.
My only gripe with this addon is that when you reload the page the volume slider goes back to 0, but I think this is an limitation either of Firefox or Instagram's site. - Rated 5 out of 5by myalcinac, a year ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by zakk89, a year agoEverything is fine,but unable to Remember & auto-set the last volume level when using reels,and the control cannot be automatically hidden.
