Great plugin, really saved me when trying to watch streams on my raspberry pi when they kept crashing the browser before. Wish I could increase the volume past max tho on a quiet laptop

good & customizable & no ads & uses real twitch chat so it has frankerfacez support

What an absolute Chad of a plugin! I live in a rural area and my only choice for internet is very low quality, low bandwidth, with high packet loss. For a reliable Twitch stream, I'm stuck with 160p.

With the default twitch client, I can't even have chat open because having chat open will cause video buffering. Alternate Player for Twitch.tv fixes that, with an assortment of features that optimize bandwidth usage. I still can't watch HD, but at least I don't have any buffering with this player!

The audio-only mode is also a godsend because some smaller streamers don't have a 160p option. I would be completely unable to watch their streams without this plugin.

Please add redirection from stream raids, autoplay functions of vods to make this an absolute banger, thanks for this!

Have a slow net, so I really like the buffering settings and how you can change it to your liking. Hardly see buffering anymore. And no ads which is great.

But, the question I have is, the player is constantly in theater mode with no option from what I've seen to get out, so in order for me to switch streams I need to go back to the home page or open another twitch tab which is inconvenient. Anyway to see my followers tab while watching a stream? Thanks

This is an amazing extension. Everything is super smooth, low CPU usage, and it's just an infinitely better experience than the bloated official Twitch player. The only issue I have with it is that it seems to have a significant delay in regards to the chat and the stream.

absolute must have if you watch twitch regularly

Seems to be working once again. Even if it eventually doesn't work, I'm very happy the work is being put in to combat the amazon ad apocalypse.

Re-installed the addon, works without problems!
Make this add-on great (again!). Loving it!

This is such a good addon with a hardworking dev playing cat and mouse with Twitch on a daily basis it seems - don't leave a negative review just because the addon worked perfectly up until now! Leave a positive review for all the free quality/experience improvements you've gotten until now.

Absolutely fantastic addon that the author regularly updates to work around Twitch's terrible ad-filled experience. This fixes everything. Get it!

Actually I had to realize how good it is when it suddenly stopped working. Absolutely 5 stars. I can confirm it works with new Twitch API if you reinstall this addon.

Re-install the extension. It finally works now. Thank you for this amazing tool CoolCmd.

EDIT: Developer has fixed the API issue, player is working again, actual review to follow.

This extension has proven to be a godsend for me. Using satellite internet, twitch's own player has been broken for years. The control this player offers over the video buffer is absolutely fantastic for dealing with a "quirky" internet connection.

Many thanks to the developer for enabling me to enjoy channels on twitch.tv <3
