Overall, a shady addon.

1. Addon has BSD license without source code linked.
2. It sends telemetry, unique persistent device fingerprint, device, screen, date and time, time zone, CPU, GPU, languages information when you try to send a report.
3. Contrary to its policy (coolcmd.github.io/privacy.html#tw5-en), you cannot refuse to include the data, only refuse to send the report altogether.
4. The server URL is not disclosed: r90354g8.beget.tech/tw5/report3.php
5. Chat in the extension page doesn't save theme across browser sessions.

EDIT: you can still see the extension's code in the browser, it's not minified. IT'S IN RUSSIAN (yes, the whole code, not just the comments).

```
if (!лБыстро) {
м_Преобразователь.Остановить();
м_Проигрыватель.Остановить();
м_Помойка.Сжечь();
}
м_Журнал.Окак('[Запускалка] Работа завершена');

Проверить(!г_лРаботаЗавершена);
м_Журнал.Вот(`[Запускалка] Начало работы ${performance.now().toFixed()}мс`);
```

Just found that this extension is causing me to be unable to watch Amazon Prime videos. Each video would show some message like "That shouldn't have happened." I tried a few troubleshooting steps but nothing helped. Disabling this addon made it so i can watch amazon stuff again.

Works perfectly, BUT you can't see the streamer panel, and for me the transparency setting in the colors tab is hidden. Still a 4 star since the actual functionality is perfect. Got this for the adblocking and the latency fixing and it seems to do both as good as possible.

Can't receive twitch drops via extension. Fix pls, otherwise great extension.

More and more bugs, now the chat doesn’t work anymore, please do an update

Please update for 1440P streams. Also, I don't think this works anymore for twitch drops.

I decided after having issues with Twitch again today to give this addon a try. Now I remember that I've tried this addon before for Firefox and I wish I could say that I could give this more than a 1-star but it doesn't work. I've tried figuring it out to be sure it wasn't me and I checked the other reviews here, but other folks seem to have problems getting this addon to function and play a live Twitch stream. To the author of the addon, if this addon worked once before, it sadly did not work for me more than a year ago and doesn't work now.

Really nice but PLEASE UPDATE so 1440p works

Once good, now terrible. Can't make a simple update to view 1440p streams. Trying to open more than 1 player at the same time takes ages. God forbid you try to load a few streams at once, you might as well go read "war and peace" before they load.

Works great overall! solved some buffering issues with some of my streamers. For a feature request, I was wondering if it would be possible to add 7TV support as currently I need to use Chatterino seperately to be able to see 7TV emotes in chat. Thanks for all the hard work!

Still doesn't work on streams that are higher than 1080p and it's been like 3 months now.

Thanks for the great extension!
dark mode setting is not saving tho

Unfortunately this extension is getting killed. First on chrome and now it doesn't work on most streamers channels. RIP Alexander you really helped hope you can come up with something new

Doesn't show followed channels, drops don't seem to work? Chat is constantly reset to light mode unless the "less features" option is selected. No option to minimize player size.

Its ok, i have issues with the chat not popping up and havin to go into task manager and force shut down if firefox and somethimes that works

Could have been great, but inexplicably changes the entire UI while watching a stream. Dark mode is only remembered with less chat features, and it recommends changing to Dark Mode via Twitch.Tv which appears to just not exist. Navigation is completely removed and is changed to an options list to click through, completely useless change. It removes all of the panels below the stream, another needless change. If this kept something at least moderately similar to the base UI of Twitch, or options to customize it, this would be great. It ruining the UI makes this nearly unusable for me unfortunately. Lastly, it didn't really even help with the stream delay. The base delay with this player was longer than when default is just buffering.

Thank you very much for the addon, love it. In the last 3-4 days a problem has appeared, the chat has stopped scrolling. It does not want to scroll either automatically or manually, just freezes in one place. Probably Twitch as usual changed something and this affected the addon.

pros: no ads or random pauses, instant playback, customizable/tons of options, off-load chat, pretty seamless integration.

cons: delay is longer than the default viewer, no replacement for the sidebar showing who is live/following, 2k/encrypted streams weren't working but idk if they patched it, can't get 7TV/emotes working but I could just be stupid.

alt player is good for lurking/watching but the delay & difficulty getting emotes may ruin it for active chatters. very good for clippers/editors since it has playback. im not really sure if drops/gift subs work but i assume they do if you have chat enabled.
