Description

Plunger is really an adblock blocker workaround – it's an innovative solution that switches YouTube's default player to the embedded version, typically used for sharing. This clever alteration allows you to enjoy videos seamlessly, even with adblock enabled and while being logged into your account.

It has been working great so far. I'll give it a few more weeks to see if I still think it deserves 5 stars. EDIT: I have faced a few weird errors since it was installed. There were two audios playing at the same time, and when the video stopped, the other one kept playing. The back button reloaded the page instead of going back to the previous page. I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this, but I hope your team will fix these issues soon. STOPS WORKING COMPLETELY!!!!

Works, but seems to play 2 instances of the video at the same time, but you can only see 1 of them to pause it. If you turn off auto play, it plays 1 version of the sound but not the video.

This unblocked me from playing the videos. However, it would be great if below problems can be resolved. 1) It conflicts with unhook. Videos fail to play or constantly play one scene in loop. Even if i disable unhook 2) minimize button in the player control is missing even if I chose "display player control." 3) can't play videos in the queue, although I can add vids to the queue. UPDATE: note: using plunger on brave. downloaded from chrome web store. I played around with unhook and plunger, and the min button is now visible. 1) however, returning to normal screen size stops videos. 2) I then have to click the red "play" button in the middle of the screen to play videos from the beginning. 3) also, minimize button is invisible again 4) refreshing the page brings back the min button. The annoying part is that I would have to fresh the page every time I return to normal screen size after minimizing. I also have to restart the video from the beginning by manually pressing the play button.
