However, post the implementation of Chrome Web Store's Manifest V3 requirements, the extension may not support background audio playback.

Love it! Allows you to browse a site with an audio file and add it into the extereo player and leave the site without having to stay there. Can do this for numerous files as well and create a full playlist.
Would be cool if it auto saved lists in case you had an accidental browser crash. These don't get stored unless you export the playlist manually. I had this happen before with 20+ files and had to go into history and retrace my steps to get those files added back (my fault since you CAN save playlists, but manually). Would also be cool if you could hover over the song/audio file and have it show the entire name of the audio file. If the title of the song/audio file is too long, you have to click the chain-link icon to go directly to the song/audio page to look at the url for the full name.
Its awesome, i am absolutely loving it, Thanks developers for making my day. Yes, this works with vivaldi also, i.e. not CHROME only.
exactly what i needed
