Extension summary

***** OVC - One Video Control lets you control all the videos you see while browsing - with your own control.*****

****** Why do I need it?! ******* It exposes new ways to interact with videos: A "popout" button to extract the video from the browser and play it as a "stand alone", also known as 'picture in picture', Scrolling up and down to increase / decrease speed or volume of the video (no more guessing if you want 1.25 or 1.75, just scroll up and down for faster and slower - with no limitation), A button to toggle max speed on and off (very useful for fast forwarding advertisements when possible, or just to find that part in the video you are looking for), Easy ways to go forward and backward, exposes a short skip and a long skip buttons (defaults to 5 and 30 seconds), mute , repeat, and more to come!

********** V1.0.22********* bugfix - (reported by a happy user) - in rutube.ru, when having OVC installed, the full screen of the site malfunctions -> fixed.

********** V1.0.21********* bugfix - (reported by a happy user) - using favorite speed, then super speed, then favorite speed again - not working -> fixed.
