Opens a video when you open a new tab
New Tab Extension
NewTabVideo is a Chrome extension that enhances your browsing experience by playing a random video from the videos folder of the extension each time a new tab is opened.
Enhance your NewTabVideo experience by personalizing it with your own video wallpapers.
Adding / Removing Videos
Once you've installed the extension, follow these steps to add videos:
- Open a new tab.
- Click on the folder button located in the top left corner of the NewTabVideo extension (shown on mouse hover). This will copy the path of the app to the clipboard.
- Open File Explorer (or equivalent) on your computer.
- Paste the copied path into the address bar of File Explorer and press Enter.
- You will now be in the folder where the extension is installed. Place your desired video files into the \"videos\" folder within this directory.
Note: Due to privacy restrictions in Google Chrome, I'm unable to directly open File Explorer to assist you in adding videos.
Customizing Wallpaper Folder
- Adding Videos: Simply place your desired video files into the videos folder located within the extension's directory.
- Single Video Option: If you prefer to have only one video playing, ensure that the videos folder contains just that single file.
- High-Quality Wallpapers: For access to a variety of 4K video wallpapers, check out MoeWalls.com
