2.0.0

  • Added features:
    • Keep the volume synced between tabs
    • Set an initial volume level once per tab
    • Hide the cursor after a set amount of inactivity while hovering over the video
    • Show a thumbnail overlay over the video element (or open the thumbnail in a new tab) automatically and/or manually, depending on configuration
    • ?si parameter is removed in YT's share menu too now
    • Added an "above-queue" button to clear the currently playing queue / playlist
    • Fix rendering issues when using HDR
    • Disable the Dark Reader extension on both pages (because it messes up the layout)
  • Changes / Fixes:
    • Improved the config menu
      • Created new toggle input (because checkboxes don't come close to looking as good)
      • Added an advanced mode option that reveals a set of hidden settings, and lots of new settings that were previously not configurable
      • Improved styling and layout of menu substantially, especially when using different languages
      • Now an option to open the config menu is shown on YT too
      • Made a bunch of features not require a page reload anymore

    • Implemented new class BytmDialog for less duplicate code, better maintainability, the ability to make more menus easier and for them to have better accessibility
    • Expanded plugin interface
    • Added an experimental fuzzy filtering algorithm when fetching lyrics to eventually yield more accurate results (hidden behind advanced mode because it's far from perfect)
