Extension summary
Have you ever watched a Youtube video, then all of a sudden EAR BLASTING NOISE STARTS PLAYING!!! But you're laying back, in your chair, all comfortable and stuff. You go to pause it by slamming on spacebar, but it only scrolls down the page! Damn!
Well, this extension prevents that exactly. On Youtube videos, it will actually play and pause the videos, instead of scrolling down the damn page.
NOTE: Only works with HTML5 video. To access this feature, make sure your browser is updated and navigate to http://youtube.com/html5 to enable HTML5 video.
