Does not work as of FF 102.0.1 #132

Zero URLs detected on youtube, bitchute, everywhere else...

mitsukuri commented 2 years ago

Ah, I see.. I was under impression that it should have worked there, while it is not guaranteed, per docs. It does work elsewhere. Closing, sorry for the fuss.

It works fine for me, no difference from 102.0. That being said, there's really no point in using this addon for websites that are natively supported by tools such as yt-dlp.

mitsukuri commented 2 years ago

yt-dlp fails with bitchute for me, so I was trying to extract the stream via this extension. Will check for solutions at yt-dlp repo.

54ac commented 2 years ago

Haven't heard of that website before, but it seems to work fine with yt-dlp for me. Might be something on your end.

mitsukuri commented 2 years ago

That pretty well might be. Thank you for chiming in!

Funny enough, I was able to get the video via devtools/network - it did not stream but rather downloaded the whole video at once at page load. From there, it was no trouble getting it.
