Quick Setup Guide

Works out-of-the-box.

YES "Media Player - Extended Props" WILL WORK WITH THIS ADDON.

Known Issues
  • Some videos show black/white screen (reason unknown).
  • Not all TikTok videos work.

Same with mediaplayer_mute_unfocused
Should be 1 by default but kinda silly it doesn't have a widget lol
Great changes overall tho, would be crazy if you added wire inputs next haha

3daudio is cool, would be better if it had a GUI widget for the command to turn it on/off tho( or maybe it should be easier to find, if there already is one? ), kinda breaks on large mediaplayers from the extension addon, and bigger theatre builds

@Rust, It exists, but you don't have to use it. The add-on is available to everyone.

If you don't like it, don't use it. Period.

Um,,, Why is an alt-right video platform supported with this? I'm concerned.
its eternity in there 7 Oct @ 6:56am 
Can you take a look at my Github pull request when you have the time, thanks.

Could you tell me if the MKV is linked directly without a website in between? And did you also use GmodPatchTool?
im trying to play a .mkv file through google drive but it says "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again later.", is there any fix for that?

I have a suggestion, If you press the "Request URL" Button with right click, it won't close the panel, that way you can select many at a time.

@XAV1ERON, Firstly, what is the point of commenting on the same text on the originals and here? The problem with “HTML parsing” is not affected here, as we use a different method to extract information from YouTube.

Please deactivate the ORIGINAL ADDON, update your addons, and try again.
