Description
Alternate player of live broadcasts for Twitch.tv website.

Advantages of the extension's player:

• Less stops during playback: if necessary, the player's settings can be tuned to your Internet connection.

• Instant replay of the last minutes of the live broadcast, optionally with increased/reduced speed or frame-by-frame.

• Does not insert ads. Ads that Twitch embeds directly into the stream, in some cases can be shown.

• “Audio only” mode. Ideal for music listening.

• You can set the size and location of the chat, even while in full-screen mode.

• You can completely disable the chat: it will not consume computer resources, and you will not be in the viewers list.

• Changes volume by mouse wheel.

• You can colorize the player interface to your liking.

• Takes up less RAM.

• Rapid start-up of the player. This is especially noticeable on slower computers.

• Allows you to disable stretching the small video to the player size.

• Allows you to continue viewing the broadcast in another player, for example Media Player Classic, VLC Media Player, or MX Player.

• Large number of useful (and not so) settings.

The player can playback only live broadcasts and does not affect playback of videos.

I do not recommend using the extension without a mouse, because touch screen support is incomplete.

If you have problems with the extension, first read the help. To do this, in the player right click the view area, then in the menu click “Help”. If this does not help, send feedback to the extension developer. If you can not start the player, send feedback by e-mail. The e-mail address is located somewhere on this page.

The extension during its installation requires the following permissions:

• Read and change content on websites you visit. This permission is required to download the video that Twitch stores at random addresses on third-party servers.

• Read and change your cookies. This permission is used to read your Twitch.tv login status, so you can create clips.

The extension is also available for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox browsers.
