It keeps reloading the tabs and is generally confusing as the icon is suppsoed to change but thats hardly noticeable.

All i want is an extension that just allows 1 player instance and maybe 'a stop all videos' without reloading the whole tab.... That's all that is needed to keep everything tidy.

Since YT gets rid of the old layout for good, YTC doesnt work anymore. I looked through all youtube extensions and this is the closest i found... I'm so confused. This used to be a thing on several extensions. Why is it not anymore??

Новые открытые в фоне вкладки начинают проигрываться все одновременно, а не начинать кэшировать, стоя на паузе. А дополнение нужно было в первую очередь для этого.
