I like almost eevrything in this player, especially the playlist option. The only thing I would like to improve - ability to hide the speed, screenshot etc icons and show them on hover

Видеоплеер, проигрывающий локальные файлы. Можно выбрать несколько файлов в плейлист, задать скорость воспроизведения, выше стандарта увеличить максимальную громкость звука. Однако он не подхватывает youtube ссылки, и при этом не способен на многое, что по умолчанию делают простейшие локальные видеоплееры, например, не может держать картинку поверх всех окон. Особого смысла в данном расширении не усматривается, хотя оно и полностью работоспособно.
