StuffJake 2021-06-06 работает, но не хочет тправлять 1080p в плеер
Steven Wilson 2020-07-12 Used to like this extension and use it from time to time, but it breaks YouTube Music Premium (makes it skip songs and play ads despite being on Premium). Had to remove it.
Gibby Nla 2020-03-04 So far it works, but I can't seem to enqueue videos, it goes directly to whatever youtube page I'm on. I'd like to queue up several videos instead of having to constantly paying attention to my chrome browser surfing through youtube videos. Thanks, Update: I followed your instructions and it seems that sometimes the videos just jump to vlc and start playing while other times I am able to select enqueue from the pop up menu and send it without it starting immediately. It seems inconsistent at this point. If you can have it always pause in the pop up before we choose to enqueue it, that would be nice.
Андрей Б. 2020-01-12 Ничего не появляется в адресной строке, хотя WEB-интерфейс VLC загружается и работает. Версия Google Chrome 49.0.2623.112, версия VLC 3.0, ОС Windows XP.
