Features & Capabilities

Stream to Android Player automatically detects streaming videos (m3u8 and mp4) on the current webpage and lets you open them in your Android video player. When streams are found, a play icon appears in the bottom-right corner; tap it to view all detected streams and share your chosen one to apps like mpv or SVPlayer.

Changelog highlights: v1.2 fixes overheating, shows duration when available, and adds a Popup UI and Settings. v1.1 expands detection methods to cover more sites. Note: some sites may not be detected, especially DRM-protected ones; if so, please leave feedback.

User Reviews

Users appreciate the Stream to Android Player add-on for its ability to open streaming videos directly in external video players like MX Player. It is praised for its ease of use, allowing users to tap and hold on videos to select playback options. The add-on is used daily by some and fills a previously unmet need, though it lacks user ratings. No recurring issues or cons are mentioned in the reviews.

Allows opening videos in external video player apps like MX Player
Easy to use by tapping and holding on playing videos to select the open in external option
Reliable and useful for everyday use
Appreciated by users who find it much needed and lacking ratings so far

Cons

Funcionando, desearia poder mover el boton amarillo que justo aparece sobre el texto de la pagina, seria mejor si apareciera momentaneamente sobre el video a ver

After recently switching away from samsungs browser, I began to really miss their integration of the in-built video player. This extension almost perfectly replicates that feature with the ability to open videos in a new tab on the web player. My only issue is that the webplayers fullscreen option forcibly stretches the video to fill my screen and cuts off chunks of the video at the top and bottom. I am using a S23Ultra which has has an aspect ratio of 19.3:9, which causes these issues when trying to watch videos in the standard 16:9 aspect ratio. If not for this issue, i would happily give this extension a 5Star rating

Is Stream to Android Player Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Stream to Android Player requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Stream to Android Player is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
