Click the button below to install on Firefox!

How to install on Chrome, Edge, Chromium, etc...

  1. Get the addon.xpi file from the releases page (scroll down for a bit to see it)
  2. Rename it to addon.zip
  3. Sideload it in your browser. See your browser documentation for more info.

It's not on these stores because :

  • Chrome web store wants to get a $5 payment for opening the account which is fundamentally incompatible for a non-profit open-source app
  • Edge does not want to accept the add-on because it has background.scripts which is only used in Manifest Version 2 while this add-on uses manifest version 3, but the new background.serviceWorker is not supported yet by Firefox. I have included both for extended compatibility but removing background.scripts as Edge asks would break Firefox.

  • Can change settings to show all requests without filtering if your media is not detected by default.

Note: Some sites may not work with the add-on due to DRM or other restrictions. If you encounter any issues, please report them on the GitHub page
