v1.5.4

Completes the Android repair started in v1.5.3 — that release fixed comment injection but transcript fetching still failed on a real device; it never shipped to AMO.

Transcript fetching on Firefox for Android

  • The player only exposes caption track URLs (with the required proof-of-origin token) once playback has started — and mobile blocks autoplay, so the transcript engine came up empty on devices. The add-on now briefly starts playback itself (the button tap counts as the required user gesture) and pauses it again afterwards; a video that is already playing is left alone.
  • If no transcript is found on mobile, the error now says to play the video for a moment — instead of pointing to a transcript panel that does not exist on m.youtube.com.

Comment field

  • After injection the comment box grows to 40% of the screen height. The default is 84px tall and its resize handle is nearly impossible to grab on a touchscreen.

Full end-to-end run verified on a physical device (Galaxy A51, Firefox Nightly via web-ext).
