• Firefox Desktop: Prevents videos from pausing when switching tabs and stabilizes playback when loading video sites in Firefox sidebar or DevTools responsive mode. Verified compatible with Firefox Desktop on Windows. Other desktop platforms are not officially tested.
• Active Status Indicator: Automatically detects supported sites and displays a green icon and badge to indicate when the helper is active.
• Dark Mode UI: Minimal, dark-themed popup interface for toggling features.
• Optional Keep-Alive: Sends harmless, non-character activity signals that may reduce inactivity-based pauses on some players.
