Add-on summary

This extension brings a small, persistent progress bar to the YouTube player, enhancing your viewing experience. You can customize the extension to adjust the bar's height and color on the options page.

The beauty of this feature lies in its adaptability ? it remains hidden until the default YouTube progress bar disappears, even in fullscreen mode!

The primary goal is to offer a constant visual cue of the player's progress status. If the bar appears too slim for your screen, head to the options page and tweak the height setting.

Exciting Features:

  1. Keep track of the loaded percentage (buffered video progress).
  2. Monitor the current position of the player.
  3. Updates of these percentages every 2 seconds.
  4. Almost all features are fully customizable through the options page.
  5. Compatible with the YouTube website and embedded YouTube players on any website.
  6. Hides the permanent progress bar on live streams
