Video Control for Instagram by Arcus92
Review by Atlas
Rated 4 out of 5
by Atlas, 2 years agoLovely add-on but why change the UI from the default browser player? The default browser player had more options (like open video in new tab option that I used quite frequently) compared to this new UI that not only looks worse but is less functional as well. Having to find an empty pixel in between the buttons to be able to right click to see other options significantly dampens the functionality.

posted 2 years agoHi Atlas,
Thanks for you review. There were some issues with the native browser behavior, I'm unable to change. Using a custom UI, I have full control over the player. I want to include as many missing feature, like speed-control in the UI, but this will take some time. To make everyone happy, the next update will include a option to switch between the custom or native UI. You can choose whatever fits your needs.
I'll find some time this weekend to finish and release the update. Until then, have a good time :-)

- Rated 1 out of 5by edenflare, 9 days agoYeah it doesn't work and needs updating because instagram now prevents the slider from moving naturally.

- Rated 4 out of 5by dokja, 21 days agothe fullscreen fits based on the sides not the top and bottom so the vertical videos appear zoomed in
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15091183, a month agoDefinitely a necessary thing, though currently not working due to IG UI change. Might work again soon if updated.

- Rated 3 out of 5by MistaBizness, 2 months agoThis extension was a 5/5 until recently when it started doubling the audio. this review noticed the exact same thing: https:// addons. mozilla. org/ en-US/ firefox/ addon/ instagram-video-control/ reviews/ 2602103/ . If this is fixed, then it will go back to being a 5/5.
