Great tool!

I use this mainly in the world of media research, documentation, and archival, and being able to take a screenshot at perfect resolution is a great feature! Namely, the current resolution of the video (1080p or 720p etc. with no compromises).

Comparable to downloading the YouTube video, opening it in VLC, and taking a screenshot there. It's way faster and way more convenient.

Edit from four months later: somehow it's even better. Regular updates are good, but what I pay attention to is archival quality.

Today I specifically compared a 1080p screenshot from this add-on to screenshots from VLC of the video as downloaded in WEBM and MP4 file format.

The screenshot as obtained from this add-on matched the WEBM screenshot pixel-for-pixel(!!!), and the MP4 screenshot did not match.

Firstly I actually didn't know that YouTube's MP4 files underwent more compression than their WEBM files (of course a file format is just a file format; an MP4 can be lossless or compressed to hell, but YouTube compresses videos in a consistent manner).

And secondly I am impressed! Thank you for the high quality add-on, this is going to be a part of my toolkit for a long time to come.

Works a lot better than any other YouTube screenshot addon I've tried! Truly a masterpiece!

PS. You should probably edit the description "Shutter sound can disable in add-on Preferences" should say "Shutter sound can be disabled in the add-on Preferences"

It just works! Great extension

App is perfect right now!
You can save screenshots without folders or you can choose if they must be downloaded in a general "YouTub" folder or even with sub-folders to have a better control of them.
Thanks for listening and improving this awesome app!

Im like it, but please do save without subfolder.

Is it Open Source? What is the Source url?

Is it possible to add an option to "copy to clipboard" instead of "saving it as a file".

Thank you so much :)

It blends in perfectly with YouTube's layout and saves them automatically in separate folders! Neat!!

Edit: Works great now thanks
