About this extension

Quick "how-to": Use "Select start" where you want your loop to begin (e.g. 00:05). Then keep listening or skip to whatever you want to stop at and use "Select end" (e.g. 00:15). Now your loop is set, you just need to turn on loop in context menu, or it will not do anything (as a feature). Your media is now playing from 5sec->15sec over and over.

Context menu = right click menu

Explanation of required permissions:
*no permissions of substance required*
-In reality, requires "context menu" and "active tab" permissions. Active tab means it can function inside the tab you're using it in but no others.

you may use this as you will for all I care.
Works by setting an interval and checking if media.currentTime > set end time, then goes back to set start time. For whatever reason the webaudio api loopStart & loopEnd are only for... some other type of media stream, I guess?
