Converts page links to several popular video sites (including YouTube and Nico Nico Douga) to instead link to an embed page on polsy.org.uk which displays the video centered on a mainly blank page, and resized to a usually more appropriate resolution (ie one matching the resolution of the source flash video, to prevent visual/CPU issues caused by resizing).
The sites enabled can be configured from the extension's Options page at chrome://extensions
YouTube defaults to off as it's the most intrusive
Links on the video sites themselves will never be modified.
Version 2 update:
- supports https youtube links
- updated to support future versions of Chrome correctly
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
