Huh that's wierd
I don't have this issue 🤔

Can you try to building the extension from its source and sideload it?

Here's the exact youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxlKvUOA16A&ab_channel=ScaryPockets

I've noticed that not all videos do that. But without the extension all videos work normally, with it, however, some have this sort of "page reloading".

So if I understand correctly, you entered the video URL manually, and when the page finished loading, the video began "glitching"

Do you use other extensions that run on YouTube?

from youtube-auto-hd.

Url manually yes, but that is not the reason, I can select a video in youtube. Right now I'm testing and, not sure yet, it seems like if the video is up to 1080, it plays ok (I have extension set to 4k). Perhaps since extension cannot up the resolution, it's not an issue. But with 4k video, yes, when page loads and video should start playing it's like it's throwing the video to the start all the time, reloading it. The rest of the page does not seem to be "reloading".

No other YT extensions, no.

Can you list all of the extensions you're using?

from youtube-auto-hd.

A while ago #96 was reported send it I found out that the reason that my extension "glitched" is due to conflicting with another YouTube extension that added the functionality to change the video quality secretly

from youtube-auto-hd.

You're correct. I've just rechecked and there was so extension for YT, though I honestly don't remember adding it. Even the author was some ksfiswhgfshgfshldsgds. Odd. But yes, this was the reason.

I guess apologies are in order for bugging you.

No worries, I'm glad the issue was resolved 😁
