By trying to play M3U8 URLs via O input or right clicking and Play with media player , i receive this error :

While mp4 URLs are playing normally.
Thanks.

(Deutsche Welle M3U8 url for test : https://dwamdstream106.akamaized.net/hls/live/2017965/dwstream106/index.m3u8)

Currently by right clicking on URLs or videos and clicking Open with Media Player we can play online URLs , thank you very much for this great feature.
But the URLs are not all the time in browser so we could right click on them and so on, please implement a button or something for manually entering URLs, this is useful for stream URLs and M3U8 ones.
For example this is Deutsche Welle stream URL :
https://dwamdstream106.akamaized.net/hls/live/2017965/dwstream106/index.m3u8
How can we play it inside Media Player directly ?

Pour certains albums, les morceaux ne sont pas joués dans l'ordre. (j'avais rencontré ce souci avec certain player audio, mais pas avec VLC, Rhythembox, ..)
Pourtant, les fichiers sont bien indexés et numérotés.

is it possible to make the extension use the site cookies and custom headers while fetching the video? I am using mod header to change the user-agent for some websites to work however that doesnt work when using the player so any ideas what I can do?

Thank you for this great and useful extension , Firefox version is stuck on version 0.2.0 and Last updated is a year ago (May 22, 2021) , please update it to latest version like chrome.

Thank you very much.

When playing files from a playlist at non-1.0x speed, playback speed resets to 1.0x when next file is loaded. It would be nice if Media Player maintained the current playback speed set by user between files.

Please share a standalone app on chrome web store for ChromeOS users, this app is only one, best native media player of ChromeOS.

I'm running Opera on my laptop, when i drag and drop an .avi into media-player window i get "No compatible source was found for this media." it's working fine with other file types

If there is a subtitle file next to the video file, load it and enable it automatically. Of course the feature can be more advanced, configure whether subtitles should be enabled by default, set a different location where to look for subtitle files, allow downloading subtitles from services such as opensubtitles.com, ...

can you make the player detect and play gifs?

Please add the ability to add a subtitle while the video is already playing. It would be very useful when you are watching something from a streaming site that doesn't have subtitle support itself, so you can add your own.

Also there shouldn't be a need for the subtitle to be the same filename as the playing video, to make this even more intuitive.

Very nice add-on. I have a couple of question:

1. How to switch audio track?
2. Does it support mkv container having mp4 embedded video?
3. Is there any JS api so that I can invoke into this library from another chrome window/tab? For example, use javascript to add another video into the playlist or switch the audio track (use Media player to play video and another chrome window to control)?

Thanks

Thanks for creating a player with playlist inside Firefox!! Just what I was searching for. Recently discovered another add-on, Video Dominator, which let you control speed, time and volume, only by rolling the mouse wheel, works in chrome also. I am watching videos one by one, then found your add-on, which have playlist. So my dream is to watch videos only rolling the mouse wheel, is a lot quicker to jump in time, increase speed or volume.

Would you make MediaPlayer be controllable with Video Dominator

thanks for the extension, it works well except for one issue.

When playing local audio if the cast function is activated, the cast message appears in watermark on the screen and the audio is muted for 2 seconds, then resumes playing.
-all codec types
-repeatable
-browser is chromium, on arch linux, KDE plasma

Slowdowns on Chrome (chromium - Version 92.0.4515.107 Official Build 64 bits) with the use of MediaPlayer.
The pages in consultation freeze and it is the same for the scrolling of the extension (visual). However, the music plays without interruption.

Would it be possible to hijack the chrome native player and run the extension whenever a video from web URL is opened in a tab?

Currently Google Chrome has issues with playback even with it's supposedly natively supported formats:

They simply do not load.
It would be awesome if this player could replace the native chromium player in the tab.

How are you, brother?

I'd like to make a request. I can not find a way to watch videos in .TS format using your extension. Please, friend, could you implement this feature? If not, could you tell me some way to do this that is not converting the files (because there are thousands of videos in .ts)?

From now on, I thank you very much! Many thanks for your incredible project! I use your extension to watch videos in English, to take advantage of the resource of Live Caption embedded in Chrome.

As of latest Chrome extension update, the player does not remember playback position, even within the same session.

None

If there is a button for looping, the add-on would be great
Thank you for nice add-on!

Would be great if you could add support for the mkv container

Would be very nice to have the chance to load double subtitle at once, as bsplayer and other software already do.
Usefull for language learning or for multicultural groups of viewer.
By the way, very good project!

The standard action when the user clicks somewhere on a playing video is to pause/resume the video.

It is not to jump to wherever in the video corresponds to wherever they happened to click!

I need a keyboard shortcut to control the playback rate — clicking on the playbackRateMenuButton only increase the rate. to cycle through all the options to get to the next lower playbackRate is awkward.

Having keyboard shortcuts to control the rate, makes it possible to fast-forward through some boring parts of a video;
I'm watching a lot of video where people talk about stuffs.

so this is a feature request to have it done properly.
patch.txt

But I've taken the liberty of butchering the code to add the functionality.

I'm ashamed of the patch. but it works. And I'm attaching the patch in the hope it can be useful.

First, this is a good media player - well done.

As the title already states, could you add a button to the control bar which will cast videos to a Chromecast?
That would be a nice little addition.

There is already a plugin for this here at GitHub.

Thank you for your efforts - best regards

On streams and live videos for example m3u8 ones , there is no option to select video quality (1080, 720 etc)

thank you very much.

I love media-player. It's simple and useful.
Since v0.2.1, I cannot find / change playback speed rate.
It seems that there's no available space for displaying playback speed?

Please implement an option to open supported URLs directly in Media Player when clicked or entered into the address bar.
For example with Native MPEG-Dash + HLS Playback when we click on or enter any M3U8 URL into the address bar , the extension automatically will take over and play the URL.
Please implement this valuable and useful option at least for streams like M3U8.
Thanks very much.

The time is sometime long, is it possible to reduce the time between two tracks of music?
Maybe add (if video.js allows it) the gapless ?
