Marco Magnini (ID: 00000002544217d1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/28/2023 funziona alla perfezione, la grafica è ottima, l'uso è a prova di bimbo e sincronizza con una marea di siti web. Uso altre estensioni per le serie tv, ma nessuna di quelle si avvicina minimamente a questa. Infatti spero un giorno crei una sincronizzazione anche con film e serie. Super complimenti allo sviluppatore.
