Features & Capabilities

The Video Player Chrome extension is a robust media player designed for flexibility and enhanced control. It allows users to boost audio volume up to 300%, similar to VLC, and speed up video playback up to 8 times, perfect for fast reviews or skipping content. With a minimalistic interface, it adds only those controls absent in the standard HTML5 video player, ensuring a clutter-free experience.

Users can play media from local disks or remote links seamlessly, leveraging standard caching for smooth streaming. Additional features include options to repeat single songs or entire playlists and to extract media sources from specified directories, making it versatile for managing and enjoying a range of audio and video files.

User Reviews

Users appreciate the Video Player add-on for its simplicity, quick loading, and clever use of the browser as a video player. However, common issues include playback resuming from where it left off when skipping tracks instead of starting over, lack of subtitle support and playback speed controls, and unclear usage instructions which cause confusion for some users.

Pros

Simple and handy for quick loading and playing of audio/video files.
Utilizes the browser itself as a video player, which is seen as a clever and efficient design.
Performs well and works reliably for playing media files.

Cons

Playback resumes from the previous position when skipping between tracks instead of starting at the beginning, which is annoying for users.
Lack of subtitle support and inability to adjust playback speed, including no shortcut for speed control or granular speed adjustments.
Some confusion about how to use the add-on interface, as it appears as a drop-down box with unclear usage instructions.

Is Video 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.

Video Player does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

Video Player has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
