OpenVideo - ad-free streaming Firefox

OpenVideo - ad-free streaming

Watch all of the videos - but none of the ads! (...even on sites which block adblockers) OpenVideo creates a safe space on every video playing webpage - ideal for streaming sites bloated with ads and malware!

Features & Capabilities

OpenVideo is a Chrome extension designed to provide an ad-free and safe video streaming experience, even on sites that block traditional adblockers. It replaces the standard video players with its own player, equipped with intuitive features such as keyboard hotkeys (e.g., 'f' for fullscreen), an easy download button, subtitle support from local files or URLs, playback resuming from where you left off, theatre mode, and picture-in-picture mode.

The extension also automatically embeds the OpenVideo player on popular streaming platforms, enhancing usability. Additionally, it offers a built-in video search engine that doesn't interfere with your default search engine, along with a personal library to manage video history and playlists. User privacy is respected, with anonymous Google Analytics tracking used solely to improve functionality, which can be disabled anytime in settings.
