Working fairly well. For me, disabling subtitles doesn't work but aside from that, working good.

FYI you have a typo in the main popup - it says "Everythig seems OK." and not "Everything" Besides that, easy fix, 5 stars

Kind of hit or miss. For some reason, when this extension is activated, every key press is read twice by Max, so if you click left to back 10 seconds, it goes back 20 seconds, the same for forward. And I cannot get it into full screen by using the "F" key because it instantly returns back to minimized because it's like pressing it twice. The extension looks promising; just needs the kinks worked out.
