YouTube Repeat Button

Adds a repeat button to the HTML5 player to loop over a single track after 1 second delay

YouTube Repeat Button - Firefox Add-on for Looping Videos

'YouTube Repeat Button' is a Firefox add-on that rectifies the absence of a repeat button on YouTube's HTML5 player. This button allows the user to replay a single track after a brief 1-second delay. Enabled by default, it turns white when active. As of version 0.2.1, the add-on supports the native loop function and retains the loop state while navigating between tracks. The repeat button is not functional in playlist mode, recommending the user to switch to standard playing mode instead. Upon opening a new player, the repeat button is disabled by default but can be reactivated using a simple URL appendage - '&repeat=true'.

Add-on summary

The "YouTube Repeat Button" extension addresses the missing repeat button on the HTML5 YouTube player. By installing this extension, you can have the missing repeat button available. By default, the button is inactive. To repeat a single track, click the button once. When the extension is active, the button's color turns white. In this mode, once the video finishes, the extension pauses the player for one second, seeks the start of the track, and replays it.

Please note that before the 0.2.1 release, this extension only functions in normal playing mode. If a track is in playlist mode and the repeat button is pressed, the extension will suggest switching to the normal playing mode.

Furthermore, the extension is disabled when a new player is opened. If you wish to enable the button, append "&repeat=true" to the URL of the YouTube page.

Starting from the 0.2.1 release, the extension utilizes the native loop function and maintains the loop state during navigation between tracks.
