Summary
Advantages of the player:
• Less stops during playback: if necessary, the player settings can be tuned to your Internet connection.
• Instant replay of the last minutes of the live broadcast, optionally with increased/reduced speed or frame-by-frame.
• Hides Twitch ads. Ads that streamer embeds directly into the stream will be shown.
• “Audio only” mode. Ideal for music listening.
• The extension automatically opens chests with bonus points in chat.
• You can set the size and location of the chat, even while in full-screen mode.
• In chat (for example, attached to the bottom or top side of the window) there is room for much more messages and emotes.
