Features & Capabilities

F.A.N.S. Framerate Advance Notice System

The Framerate Advance Notice System lets you know the available framerate options on a Youtube video by hovering its thumbnail.

How it works: when you install it and refresh your tabs pointing to a youtube.com page, when hovering a thumbnail, the browser will actually dynamically load the raw html source from the video page to get the framerate information.

User Reviews

Almost perfect, but has a few bugs: 1. Stops working randomly. Restarting Firefox fixes usually 2. Sometimes the framerates show up very briefly, and I have to keep re-hovering over videos to have it show up long enough to read. Restarting does not fix. I really like this addon and hope Tim continues to support it! Maybe one day there will be some kind of auto-refresh rate switch built into windows, but until then I have to manually change it every time I watch a video. This addon makes that just a bit nicer.

Is Framerate Advance Notice System Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Framerate Advance Notice System requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
