pt Fantástico!! Ótima ideia, me incomodava muito isto de mais de um vídeo tocando ao mesmo tempo, ou quando ia passando por abas que estavam com o vídeo pausado e começavam a tocar todas, já testei algumas para desabilitar esse comportamento, mas essa extensão resolveu isso e ficou até melhor, só trocar a aba e já dá play

en Everything I need. An enable/disable button. Auto resumes when looking at the page. Auto pauses when not looking at the page. Edit: Not working when I alt-tab. It worked the first time. Weird. Edit2: Alt-tab sometimes work...

I definitely liked this plugin, but I want to suggest an improvement, The problem is, when the video is finished, and I browse the comments, many times the comments make me switch to other tabs, and then when I return, the plugin plays the video from the beginning, and it removes the red check mark, that I have already watched this video, and may create confusion in the future whether I have already watched this video or not

It works and does exactly what it says! I'd use this now instead of other similar, because it have easy on/off switch on a button.
