Very handy extension to install and use. Thanks.

War für lange Zeit ein super kostenloses Add-On, aber seit die riesigen QR-Codes in die Videos geklebt werden, ist es schlecht zu gebrauchen. Wasserzeichen ist viel zu groß. Damit sind Videos kaum richtig zu betrachten. Macht es kleiner, wie vorher.
