This extensions lets you use tabs to make a temporary video playlist. When active the extension will switch to the tab to the right when a video finishes. When that tab's video finishes it will switch to the next and so on. By using the middle mouse button you can very easily line up videos you want to watch.

Note: This extension only works with the HTML5 player, make sure you have it at https://www.youtube.com/html5 .

Mhamad Rachini (MRACHINI) (ID: 000000054a72489e) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 11/02/2023 great tool, could you make available an option to auto enable or always be enabled by default

kt chan (ID: 00000011c50c00a4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/03/2023 Very nice extension thatI need to play a lost of selected tabs. Now I can walk around and play all tabs. Thanks

Miguel Garza (ID: 000000226052b14b) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/18/2022 Not sure if I'm missing something, but this extension doesn't work for me.

Kristen Zabrowski (ID: 0000004831e06ef1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/23/2022 This is probably my most cherished Chrome extension. It's been a long-term habit of mine to open a bunch of YouTube tabs with videos I'm interested in watching so that I can go through them as a playlist, of sorts, while I'm working. So imagine my delight when I came across this extension, which eliminated the need for me to stop what I'm doing at the end of each video to close that tab & go to the next one. This extension does exactly what it promises to do & makes my life just a little bit easier by saving me precious time each day that I had been wasting by distracting myself from my work to close out of a million tabs. Many thanks to the devs for creating something I didn't even know I needed!

Ahmed Z (ID: 0000002533da2ecf) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/27/2021 I've been looking for something like this and it works great! This only works in a left-to-right order though so I'll have to view my videos in the opposite order that I intended. It would be great if there were a couple of options: --Playing videos going to the left or right. --Not closing after the video is completed. Issues: --Currently clicking the options just gives a broken-looking pop-up. --There is no way to stop the process. If I switch to a different browser window it will do the same thing until it finds an end. As another user mentioned, it would be great to know exactly why the extension is so large (at over a megabyte) despite having a pretty simple functionality. I'm not greatly concerned about the privacy aspect since the permissions are limited to youtube and browsing history (probably so that it can read existing tabs).
