Unfortunately doesn't work, black screen when changing songs...

El botón para reanudar un video no sirve, solo para pausar; además, cuando entro a la lista de reproducción de la extensión y presiono algún video, se reproduce el que esta abajo, y siempre tengo que presionar el video de arrida del cual quiero reproducir.
