Extension summary

When enabled this extension will remove the '&list=...." information from YouTube™ links so that the player only load and plays the clicked video.

Too often YouTubers will let the default ordering of playlist with the videos playing in reverse order (newest to oldest, annoying for a web-series) or you simply want to watch a specific video and not everything on someone's channel.

Also useful for ChromeCast devices that doesn't detect when you disable Auto-play in a playlist.

Working as intended.

No longer works due to update on YouTube's end. Was great while it did work however.
