YouTube Live Stream Latency Mitigator Extension

A DVR-enabled YouTube live stream will experience delays between the broadcaster's delivery time and the viewer's time if there is a delay in receiving data at the viewer's client. This extension temporarily speeds up delayed YouTube live streams to keep the live stream real-time.
