In this version a fix has been implemented to prevent the autoplay function from failing when changing videos as a result of a change in the previous version.

In this version, for the Firefox Add-on, the location where settings were being saved has been moved to another one which will improve the performance of the browser. The settings should migrate correctly without any need for user interaction.

Blacklist cross-check for endscreen suggested videos has been improved slightly and the resize button occasionally showing with the incorrect size should now be fixed.

I've also reduced the volume wheel steps, should result in a less harsh volume change.

In this version some redundant code has been removed, the YouTube player now handles the thumbnail image correctly so there is no reason to impact performance by doing the same thing again via YT+. It was also brought to my attention that the subtitles remained on whenever the user was choosing not to disable them, this was a forgotten mistake left from pre-stable builds which had toggling options instead of boolean. The same issue was present for the annotations' option.

Also the initiation process has been enhanced, this is a trial to see wether it will work better with slower connections and the occasional Chrome injection lag, the focus is to mitigate the starting delay or failure observed in the mentioned cases. If it doesn't benefit the experience, the previous behavior will be restored.

As a result of a recent code clean up, a necessary setting has been removed which resulted in not being able to stop moving the floating player. Apologies for the trouble.

Couple of fixes and a small clean up

YouTube's new transparent player has been recently updated and it can now display the cue state correctly in the watch pages so the software no longer has to regulate this state.

The channel player will now load correctly and unnecessary code has been removed.

It seems that in certain occasions the floating player was still presisting across non-watch pages when it shouldn't, this should no longer happen.

Few improvements

While using the new transparent player, video pages would occasionally "jump" some elements to accomodate whichever sizes the player is set to, this should no longer be a problem since the new player detection is now immediate.

Apart from the bit of performance improvement as a result of the above change, YT+ will no longer run on embed YouTube pages (www.youtube.com/embed/) since it wasn't designed to work with embed videos.

A few fixes and improvements

Recently I discovered that the compact titles feature was presisting even when it was turned off, the option choice had no effect, but now it works correctly even in the subscription and search grid layouts.

The play button on the new transparent player with autoplay off was "deflating" once the video page was opened, resulting in an unpleasant experience, this shouldn't happen from now on.

The fullbrowser issue with having to click twice to activate it again after exiting via mouse click is finally fixed, due to racing conditions whith how the settings were being saved, it would override the exit choice, but this was only happening now with the Chrome extension.

YouTube is changing their data api, a recent change (which isn't yet reaching all users, only partially) caused the channel video counter and relative video post date to fail while trying to fetch that information. With this update it shouldn't matter if the user is receiving the new or default data api and allowed me to correct the fail handler in case of error, which was causing the function to break instead of ignoring silently.

A bit of code was changed to improve readablity and other removed due to unnecessary redundancy.

Due to a mistake made in the previous code improvements the software would fail to load while trying to fetch the default settings when none existed.

Quite a few improvements and couple of fixes

The blue notification box will no longer offset when the region icon is displaying. Clicking on the edges of menu links in the settings' menu was creating an error, this is now fixed. When the user exited fullbrowser via the resize button it would require to click twice to go into fullbrowser again, but this time it will only need one click.,

Some improvementes were made in respect to memory usage and a fix attempt is being used to correct a layout break in search results while using Grid layout and "related searches" appears.

Minor fix and few improvements

With this version the stream badges should no longer appear when using grid layout for search results and subscription feed.

A help link has been added to the settings' menu, should be easier to find whenever needed. The movement of the floating player has been improved to use a bit less memory and the cursor will no longer offset when it drags the player against the page limits.
