Video will not play when trying to "Open link in a new tab" (Firefox). (Possible conflict with Ublock Origin?)
Try to "Open link in a new tab" by right clicking on a video link. After trying to open a few videos this way videos stop playing as they should (did).

  1. Go to '...'
  2. Click on '....'
  3. Scroll down to '....'
  4. See error

Edit: wrong extension. I am using "Enhancer for YouTube" instead, not this one.

For me the entire extension stopped working, but I found the cause for my case:
Somehow this extension has stopped working using a different User Agent.
I am using the following extension for that: https://github.com/ray-lothian/UserAgent-Switcher/

My reason to do that was YT their behaviour of slowing down Firefox by scripts (some people even say that they do that deliberately). And my experience was that changing the User Agent string to a Chrome browser solved that problem.
But suddenly this amazing extension does not seem to function with that anymore.

I am still planning to make a separate bug report for this. Unless your case is the same as mine.

For me it's the latest version as I get automatic updates in Firefox (PC). Yeah it was working perfectly until about 2 weeks ago. It also broke a month ago but somehow it came back working for a while... Either Firefox updates and or YouTube updates causing a mismatch with your coding again. Sorry. I miss it so much.

That doesn't help me at all I need you to check the extensions version in your browser.

Yes, I was talking about the latest extension version in my Firefox
browser. Obviously if I get 'automatic updates' I should have the latest
push from you? No? You would know exactly what version it is. But since you
insist here it is... 1.27.0 Updated Oct 13, 2024

I was asking because I need to verify you are actually using my extension. Plenty of people confuse my extensions github for "enhancer for youtube"

Hi! I have to say sorry! I fear you are right. 🤦‍♂️
🤔 I don't know how I came here, but I am indeed using the "Enhancer for YouTube".
So you can forget about my last comment I guess.

Thanks a lot! - Ya, mainly the issue is when you want to open several different videos in several different Firefox tabs from the user's account algorhythm homepage. (Or from the right side-bar of 'suggestions'). We just get a black screen in the video window. Or we get the video image but it won't play. - Good Luck! - Awesome extension by the way! :) - Still wondering if Ublock origin is conflicting somehow. But I turned it off to test and it still happened.

One more thing would it be possible for you to upload a video of the problem you are having occurring.

Thank you, I tested and didn't have the issue so that's why I asked for a video of it happening.
