Extension summary

If you're like me you probably have 15 YouTube videos open in another Chrome window that just sit there. You watch a couple minutes here and there but OH! Windows Update just ran again and is forcing a restart soon. Ok well you just close that window and you can reopen it again after the restart with all your tabs intact. OH all the videos are starting from the beginning..cool. If you have ever found yourself in this nightmare scenario then this is the extension for you. It sports a simple to use interface allowing you to easily manage your open and saved YouTube videos.

FEATURES: -View and save open YouTube videos and their play positions so you can pick up right where you left off. -Sync saved videos and positions across any computer you are logged into Google Chrome on.

IMPORTANT: If you have any YouTube videos open at the time you install this extension, you will need to reload them once this extension is installed. This is due to the way Chrome extensions interact with other pages.

OPTIONAL: If you are interested in using the feature that allows you to sync your saved videos across multiple computers (i.e. your home computer and your work computer) you will need to make sure some settings are enabled in Chrome:

Verify you are logged into your Google account in Chrome by going to your Chrome settings (chrome://settings/) and in the "Sign In" section, make sure you are signed in.
In the same area of your settings, you will also need to make sure your account is set to sync extension data by clicking the button labeled "Advanced sync settings" (chrome://settings/syncSetup) and make sure "Extensions" is checked.

NOTICE: Upon installation Chrome warns you that this extension can view browsing data. Chrome does this because the extension needs to be able to open and close tabs as you manage them through the extension. Since it is able to access your tabs, Chrome views that as accessing your browsing data since the URL can be extracted from the tab. This extension will only ever interact with YouTube tabs and it does not log any data other than your videos you want to save and their play positions. If you have any questions about this feel free to contact me!
