Şimdiye kadar (son 5 yıldır) kullandığım en başarılı eklenti. Hiç bir ayar yapmadan YouTube üzerinde istediğim her kolaylığı bana sağladı. Tek amacım tiyatro modu iken birçok işe yarar faydaya sahip oldum. Teşekkürler.

Another user reported this issue and I'm having the same. Videos will play for about 19 seconds than stop and try to buffer. Disabled the extension and it plays just fine. Try reinstalling and it still happens. Was working nicely until the last 2 or so weeks. For now, this will continue to be disabled.
