I really liked this extension when it worked but now it seems like it doesn't work at all regardless of what website I am on and what link it is.

Very interesting idea, but it works for none of the YouTube videos neither from inside YouTube nor from the Google video search page (Google.com/Videos) results which is a real drawback. But I gave 5 stars because I really love the extension purpose and because it's open sourced. Great job Mr Daven Port.
