NoPlugin

Play legacy media in modern browsers without plugins.

What is NoPlugin?

NoPlugin is a Chrome extension enabling the viewing and playing of legacy content designed for erstwhile browser plugins like Adobe Flash, QuickTime, and Windows Media Player. With the browsers discontinuing these plugin-types for performance and security reasons, NoPlugin sweeps through the webpages for embedded plugin objects, converting them into native player elements or assisting in downloading for separate application play. Open source and GPL licensed, its code can be accessed at https://github.com/corbindavenport/noplugin.

Extension summary

Analyze keywords

NoPlugin is the missing compatibility layer for modern web browers, allowing you to view most legacy content designed for browser plugins like Adobe Flash, QuickTime, and Windows Media Player. All browsers have phrased out the use of browser plugins, due to performance and security problems, so NoPlugin was created to maintain some compatibility with outdated/archived sites.

NoPlugin searches webpages for embedded plugin objects and converts them into native player elements, wherever possible. If the content can't be played in-browser (e.g. most Flash embeds), NoPlugin will help you download the file and play it in a separate application.

NoPlugin is open source under the GPL license. Its code is available here: https://github.com/corbindavenport/noplugin
