finally made an account just to write this, 100% recommend this extension! I tried it after reaching my breaking point of frustration with Youtube in general, and it's been absolutely wonderful. I was astonished when I turned the extension on for the first time and watched how fast it buffered, ever since I was little I thought buffering was simply perpetually locked at that snail speed youtube normally forces on you. Having it all buffer in one go is so much nicer on my sad potato of a PC. So far my only hurdles are that I would love to use the audio menu, but it's a little too overwhelming for me and I don't really know what to do with it; and that it makes using theatre mode on youtube a bit difficult. It's the way I watch all youtube videos, as it's almost fullscreen but without being too overstimulating, and allowing me to escape to the comments if a phobia comes up or there's just too much going on, but there's not a theatre mode option in the FastStream player UI, and I can't access the youtube player ui or use its hotkeys (as far as I'm aware, but I am a bit dumb), so it's a bit janky getting it to work when youtube just decides every now and then that it wants to go back to standard viewing mode. But that's just for a specific website, and this extension is still being developed and cared for. so please if you come across this in the extension store, give it a try! <3
P.S. sorry for the ramblings, my mental issues can make it a bit hard for me to come across clearly or in an organized manner

I have a fast internet connection, but have regular buffering problems on various movie streaming sites (some sites worse than others), even in the latest Firefox 146. Tried all the about:config tweaks, disabling extensions, etc etc. but nothing worked. The problem was instantly resolved with this extension. It also instantly resolved a persistent audio sync problem, even in netflix. Lip sync is absolutely perfect now. Can't get it to work properly on youtube, or at least its buggy, and I couldn't be bothered figuring out why, because i never have problems streaming youtube videos, even at ridiculous speeds (I use youtube enhancer).
One recommendation: by default, fastStream is set to "predownload the entire video in the background if possible". I think this is overkill, the extension works so well, you can easily turn this option off, with this option off it preloads movies about 4-5 minutes ahead, which is more than enough.

I love this addon, it's truly cream of the crop. I have iffy internet, I love the peace of mind knowing that I will be able to finish a video if I experience an outage.

There are also many other features that I've gotten lots of use out of, and the customizable hotkeys have made it easy to use.

Wow... I normally don't write reviews, but this addon blows my mind. I was already happy with the streaming boost it delivers on every streaming site. But then I pressed the audio button... What the hell, a completely free, working equalizer.... Damn this thing delivers!

You can't watch the series yet, except for the first episode. I'm sorry my very bad English

Youtube keeps breaking it, but it's not the extension's fault. Still annoying, but works very well when it's fixed.

It's been quite comfortable to use. However, there are quite a few times when it fails to load videos initially and requires several reloads before starting. If it doesn't play, adding a feature like automatic reloading would make it even more comfortable.

Warning. After having issues with the player filed a bug report. I did this as I wanted to aid the developer with fixing issues with the player as it is a free addon. However after jumping through hoops to assist Andrew, I have come to the conclusion that he is very incompetent, and lacking. This does not bode well for FastStream.

Dear Mr. Vorajee,

I sincerely apologize that you have had a negative experience with reporting your issue. However, as I have mentioned in your submitted bug report #413, your request for a fix is not possible because of the limitations of your browser/computer -- FastStream MUST evict the video buffer if your browser runs out of memory. When you seek backwards, the player will redownload the evicted parts as necessary. This is intended behavior.

It doesn't work with the addon Firefox Multi-Account Containers, the player loads underneath the default Youtube player.

So far so good, my only real complaint is that it doesn't work well with another extension: Sponsorblock

It works as advertised. The videos I've been trying to watch buffered endlessly, but not anymore.

Seems very fast. Needs an option to deactivate ALL KEYBOARDS and set the preload per file.

Fantastic and versatile extension!! I installed it mainly so I could continue watching videos while moving in/out of areas with slower wifi connection around my house. Not only has it worked perfectly for this purpose, it also offers an awesome array of accessibility features and customization options which anyone could benefit from. Highly recommend
