Stream Previews (Twitch & Kick) by jmc11213

Stream Previews brings fast, lightweight live video hover previews to Twitch and Kick without having to open new tabs or interrupt your browsing. Preview any channel instantly from directory cards or sidebar channels.

Unlike legacy or commercial preview extensions, Stream Previews contains zero analytics, zero external tracking, zero advertising scripts, and zero nagging you for subscriptions.

Key Features:

• Live Video Hover Previews: Hover over any live stream card or sidebar channel on Twitch.tv and Kick.com to instantly watch the broadcast in a floating preview window.
• Per-Stream Volume Control: Every preview window includes its own horizontal volume slider and sound toggle on the header bar. Unmute and fine-tune sound per stream on the fly.
• Pin Multiple Streams: Pin as many floating stream windows as you want simultaneously. Position and resize them across your screen while you continue browsing other categories.
• Play Together (Split-Screen & Grid Tiling): Press T or click the grid icon when multiple streams are pinned to tile them across your entire viewport (50/50 split for 2 streams, theater multi-view for 3, or a 2x2 grid for 4). Click again to restore your original floating positions.
• Quick-Cycle Dimensions: Switch between 360p, 480p, 640p, and 800p presets with a single click, or use the fine-tuning slider in the extension settings.
• Clean Interface: Compact dark theme matching Twitch and Kick aesthetics, with glowing platform status dots and draggable title bars.

Keyboard Shortcuts:

• M - Toggle sound (unmute / mute)
• P - Pin / Unpin stream overlay
• T - Toggle Play Together grid tiling (with 2-4 pinned streams)
• Esc - Close active preview overlay

Privacy & Performance:

• Zero Tracking: No analytics, telemetry, or remote user data collection.
• Lightweight: Pure vanilla WebExtension with minimal memory overhead.
• Direct Embeds: Loads official Twitch and Kick player frames directly with anti-flicker hover delays.
