Summary
Мany people put links to videos on forums and blogs. Often they do so in the form of simple inscription like "looks here" or "as seen in this clip". Absolutely no information. We do not even know we have watched this video or not.
We were forced to go to the YouTube, wasting time and bandwidth. I wrote this addon to receive and display information about the video directly from YouTube without visiting.
This addon allows you to see the title, duration, channel and creation date of the clip without visiting the YouTube site. Simply hover cursor over link.
Attention! In recent months, Google has been changing (decreasing) quotas for using the YouTube API for its own reasons. As a result, the addon sometimes gets a denial of service, and you see the message “Broken link”. In the next version of the addon I will try to mitigate the situation.
Addon works in two modes:
Show info as link's tooltip. This mode is not recommended for slow internet connections. If you see "Loading..." for a long time, just re-hover the cursor.
Show info as browser notification.
