Use Cases

When opening a link with Grayjay, please add an option to add the item to the queue, instead of immediately playing the video (and interrupting any currently playing media).

Proposal

Add a setting in the menu that allows a user to select what behavior they want Grayjay to execute when opening links. Possible options include play immediately, add to queue, add to playlist, or other options (e.g. play in popup/background).

Temporary workaround (interrupts video):

Add currently playing video to queue, "share" link and open with Grayjay, add new video to queue. This will start playing the linked video, but when it is added to the queue, the previous video will play. If enough of the video has been played, it will display "Resume from mm:ss" at the top of the window.

It would be nice if there were a more direct way to do this.
