YouTube Live Stream Latency Mitigator
Extension Actions
- Extension status: Featured
This extension syncs YouTube live streams in real-time by accelerating viewer-delayed streams caused by data reception delays.
This extension temporarily increases the playback speed of YouTube live streams with DVR enabled when a delay is detected (i.e., the red "LIVE" indicator turns gray), helping you catch up to real time.
When "Aggressive mode" is enabled in the settings, the extension continues increasing playback speed to catch up to real time as long as there is buffer, even if YouTube has not detected a delay. Aggressive mode also works on YouTube live streams where DVR is disabled.
Additional features include:
- Displaying the current playback speed
- Displaying the number of seconds delayed
- Displaying the remaining buffer size
- Predicting and showing the time you will catch up to real time at the current speed
- Displaying the elapsed time of the live stream
- Copying the current timestamp to the clipboard by clicking the elapsed time display

- Its works! I'd say it might not work the way you want or expect, but for me all I wanted something that jumped to live whenever Youtube was forcing me to be delayed or lowering my video quality on purpose, seems at least because my internet connection is strong and fast, ever since covid they've done this behind the scenes delaying and lowering video quality as if people wouldn't notice. The way i set this extensions up to work the way i wanted was set the jump to live delay to 1 second xD Does exactly what i wanted now the 300 second thing, with the constant buffering was a little annoying.

- Shows latency, but doesn't actually work. Playback speed stays at 1x and never catches up.

- The UI could be more stylized, but the ext works surprisingly well

- これどのくらい遅延が発生したらX倍速するのかわかりませんので、2秒遅延したら、X倍速…みたくしてほしいです！！
