I deducted the problem I'd been having to this extension. When enabled, videos on youtube give me the following error message: "An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: Xo5eszLlAn-G72fc)" Upon refreshing the page, I'm able to view the videos. But the first time I click on a youtube video, or when it auto plays the next video, it get this message.

Yeah, I'm still having the same problem. Have you been able to find a solution yet?

The reason is that the referer is set to music.youtube.com and YT doesn't like that. Just turn off the rules?
