en It doesn't work anymore... :'( (ENG): It is an excellent extension and I loved it, it fulfills its function quite well unlike others, of course it is missing some things such as translating it into several languages ​​such as Spanish on its buttons and polishing them because it is noticeable that sometimes they do not work or not They react to the cursor, and you also need a UI on your icon, an options panel when you click the extension icon (or in the options bar of the video player) and your own website where it is possible to configure options and features but what matters most is the extension itself. There are times when the Mini Video Player Progress Bar from the bottom to the right edge disappears for no reason and doesn't let me change the time of the video even with the cursor over it. When I press the 'I' key or the 'Miniature Player' button and I scroll down the video with the Mousewheel, there is an error that causes the entire screen and video control buttons to start twitching with a weird black screen due to some uncorrected error ( perhaps if it were compatible with the miniature Video Player already integrated into YouTube this would not happen), they should add a button in the mini video player that works similar to the Picture-In-Picture to be able to move the video and drag it anywhere of the page with the mouse (Up and down, to the edges and to the sides) just by clicking and moving the mouse with the pointer still positioned on the button and the size of the page, or by holding down the button with the mouse and dragging it , also allowing you to hide the video according to the position of the Mini Video Player. + be able to modify its size, enlarging or minimizing with the mouse on the edges of the video, this function will also allow you to adapt to the size of the Shorts or vertical Videos (with or without black borders by choice) and make the video with rounded corners. I promise that if you improve the extension by adding these features and fix these bugs, I will give you three more ★ ★ ★ if you do it.
