Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
YouTube Control Center is a browser extension to control YouTube pages from a toolbar popup. You can pause, resume, stop, move to the next or previous tracks right from the popup without the need to switch to the YouTube tab. Note that if there is no open YouTube tab, by pressing the toolbar button, a new YouTube page is opened. When the player starts to playing the video, popup is ready.
Using this extension you can also control page layout as well as the player behaviours like:
1. Stop player from buffering media
2. Change quality to HD (HD2160p, HD1440p, HD1080p, HD720p)
3. Prevent the player from displaying annotations
4. Prevent the player from starting the next track when the current one is finished

youtube still keeps buffering
Buffering is still the same. Not working.
Could be the best YouTube control center. Because SMALL. But, Quality setting doesn't work. Also, doesn't work on embeds.
I still have to manually set the video resolution after I set quality to 1080HD (or Best resolution) in the extension's pop-up. And repeat after each page reload (eg after a break) and for each 'Next episode' in playlists. Chrome OS here so I can't even try the extension on Firefox unfortunately :( Nice extension beside this.
Im having trouble locating the youtube center settings, there should be a gear beside my user but its not there. all my other settings are just regular settings for my account. can you please help me.
Wants to read my browsing history. No thanks.
Horrible. Doesn't buffer videos further. Made it so that I couldn't see any comments or suggested videos, as everything but the video was just grey blocks. How is this even an extension? Literally does NOTHING that it claims to do.
So far good. I don't have to move to youtube tab to play pause in office.
I appears to not do anything it says it should - not worth it
