Description

OpenVideo creates a safe space on every video playing webpage - ideal for streaming sites bloated with ads and malware! OpenVideo comes with its own video player, which has some pretty cool features: ► adds player hotkeys (eg. 'f' for fullscreen) ► download button for every video ► add subtitles easily from hard drive or url ► starts video where you left ► theatre mode and picture-in-picture mode And on the most common streaming sites the OpenVideo player will be embedded automatically. Also there is a built in video search engine (doesn't overwrite your default search engine) and a library where you can manage your video history and your playlists. This addon uses Google Analytics so I can see which streaming hosts are most commonly used. This data is anonymous and can't be connected to individual users. This data important to keep up the high functionality rate of this addon, however you can turn it off in the extension's options.

Doesn't work at all. After hitting the Finish Installation button to give it permissions and enabling it in the extension options, then repeatedly restarting Chrome, nothing happens. The actual extension icon only shows up when adding or removing it, never on any of the 5 sites I tried. The supposed player never added itself to the videos, no extra buttons appeared anywhere, and switching between All Sites or On Click changed nothing.

Am I doing something wrong? It isn't working. I'm trying to use it for PlutoTV.com and I'm still sitting through the advertisements/commercials. Is it something that I'm doing wrong? Any suggestions?

The options page is just a big Ukrainian flag, which wouldn't be a problem if it there were actual options for me to use.No customizability. 1/5

Just added the extension. Not working at all. It's supposed to turn red when recording and it does nothing.

Stopped working. Literally unusable. Every time I open a website with a video playing in it, the OpenVideo icon gets a [1], but it disappears after less than a second. Tried on different websites, tried removing and reinstalling. No luck. It worked fine up until recently. Must be a bad update.

Wanted an extension to make ZOOM recordings more friendly, by adding video controls other than play and stop, and/or hotkeys. Didn't do what I wanted, and contained no instructions at all.

The worst extension that I've ever tried. Every time it tries to open something that it shouldn't, which is often, it puts up an obtrusive full window overlay error message that won't close, but requires that the Chrome browser be shut down to clear it.

Work great on some sites. But sometimes, it doesn't response. And when I click the option to see if there's anything to tweak, there's only Ukraine flag. What the heck? You spam Ukraine flag everywhere. Don't you know that back in 2015, answering the question about the large presence of “strange people with SS insignia” in the Ukrainian Army, Melnyk (ambassador of Ukraine to Germany) admitted that Azov and Right Sector neo-Nazis are part of the Ukrainian armed forces? I don't support fascist. Never. [Source: freeukrainenow. org] This is a web extension, not a program about politics. Of course, I hate war. I sympathize with Ukrainian people, but not their government.

everytime I try to download a video, from websites such as Soap2day, Fmovies and such it keeps saying that the files are unsupported and to switch the server but when I switch to the other servers its the same for those as well, are there any websites you reccomend to download films and shows and such, I was wondering so I can edit a project for my media class

It works great, there's just a I really need though, to sync the subtitle. There are some players whose subtitles are not in sync. It'll be eally helpful you you add that feature (:

Works as intended! But please add compatibility for Upcloud and Vidcloud, since these streaming services provide 1080p quality and are almost in every pirate website I've come across.

Hello admin? When I try to go to my "Library", it doesn't display any of my history files & also doesn't let me search for anything by name. In other words, I can no longer access (or even SEE) any of my files saved in the library
