C.J. Perron (ID: 000000db7e24e135) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/06/2021 I had 25 yrs. in the I.T. Industry. If it's broken and doesn't work for any reason. I was the guy who fixed it and got it to work. That said..., This doesn't work. When you click the extension it displays two panes with no menu or indication on how it operates. I right clicked on the black colored pane and a small "dialog tag"... some call it a "toast message" displays. Now keep in mind, the person needs to be on YouTube.com to play a video. So, I right click on the black colored pane and "a choice" was displayed... "Add video on this page to YouTube Video Player", or, "Inspect Element". Upon clicking on "Add video on this page to YouTube Video Player". A notification displays stating "This page is no correctly YouTube Page". Notice the grammar! In summary... I'm playing a YouTube video. I engage the the "YouTube Video Player extension". I right click on the Black colored pane, choose "Add video on this page to YouTube Video Player" and get the notification of "This page is no correctly YouTube Page". And that was with Chrome and it's a Chrome extension. I run/use 8 different Browsers for various reasons. So I tried with Opera Browser... same result. I tried Firefox... same result. There was no reason to go farther. I'm uninstalling it! As far as I'm concerned. It's just a marketing ploy,
