Video Player for Local Files Extension

An easy-to-use and very lightweight video player for local video/audio files, powered by Web technology. It works completely offline. In addition to using the mouse, it supports many useful keyboard shortcuts, as well as a few simple settings.

Homepage: https://webvideoplayer.org/

Updates:
1.0.0 (May 1, 2023): Support playlist UI and loop playback mode.

FAQ:
1.How to open the player?
Click the extension icon.

2.How to open files?
• Click the \"Folder\" icon in the panel
• Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd + O
• Drag and drop files to the player

3.Subtitles
Independent or embedded subtitles are not supported. Maybe I will support independent subtitle files in the future.
Of course, if the subtitles are already in the video stream, they can be displayed.

4.Online streaming media
Currently only supports local file playback. There are no plans to support online streaming media.

5.Video format and codec
Because the underlying core functions are completely implemented by the browser, only some video formats and codec are supported. In addition, it doesn't support multiple audio tracks switching.
