Enhanced Fork of https://github.com/54ac/stream-detector Adds: MPV, Use website title by default, Disable notifications by default (causes stutter, freezing, when copied link), Remove " - Website" branding for title, skip reading browser cookies for yt-dlp (option)

This is a Firefox addon written in JavaScript which provides an easy way to keep track of URLs to playlists and subtitles used by Apple HLS, Adobe HDS, MPEG-DASH, and Microsoft Smooth Streaming streams as well as download video/audio files directly and monitor any other file extensions and Content-Type headers.

Also assembles readymade yt-dlp/FFmpeg/Streamlink/hlsdl/N_m3u8DL-RE/mpv commands which (should) include all of the necessary cookies and headers.
