adds video playback controls to instagram videos embedded in web pages (seek bar, volume, play/pause, download video button)..
This tiny and efficient extension adds standard video playback controls to Instagram™ videos. Normally, all you can do with an Instagram™ video is play or pause it, but this extension will expose the native html 5 video player which has a seek bar (aka video scrubber), a volume control, a play/pause button, Picture-In-Picture (floating video) button, fullscreen video button, and on some videos it will also display a download button!
Additionally, if you adjust the volume of a video, the volume will be remembered for future videos. This feature can be disabled in the extension config, if desired. You also have the ability to change the video playback speed in the extension config.
The extension automatically runs and works on all web pages that embed Instagram™ videos!
How to use it:
1) Load any web page that contains an Instagram video
2) Click the video to make it play
3) That's it - the extension will automatically detect the video and will reveal the control buttons.
note1 - make sure to reload the page for any browser tabs that were already opened before installing the extension. The extension will not run in those tabs until you do so.
note2 - The download Video button doesn't work on many videos anymore due to instagram changes, but it does still work on some.
If you want to change the extension configuration (i.e., to set playback speed), right-click the extension icon found in the top-right of your browser, and then select "Options".
note2 - the download Video button doesn't work on many videos anymore due to instagram changes, but it does work on some.
