Developer comments

This add-on does not support capturing/creating images from HDR videos and as far as I know, there is no way to do this right now (in 2022), but you can disable HDR on browser to force Youtube to serve SDR videos.

How to Disable HDR
=======================
Firefox
1) Go to "about:config"
2) Search for "ui.videoDynamicRange". Click the "Number" radio button in the line that appears, then click the "+" button
3) The line will change to show that the new value is "0". Click the checkmark button to save
4) Refresh your YouTube HDR video page. It should now serve you as a standard dynamic range (SDR)
If you ever want to re-enable HDR, you'll need to delete that pref

=======================
Chrome
1) Go to "chrome://flags"
2) Search for "Force color profile"
3) Select "sRGB"
4) Restart browser
