About Correct Pause

This extension was made by MrQuackDuck, not me (Aljo). The reason it's under my name is because I bought a chrome developer account, and offered to publish the extension while giving full credit to the original developer. After a recent update, YouTube is now having an issue with pressing Spacebar to play/pause the video after Alt+Tab and in cases when you're unfocused from the videoplayer. This browser extension is here to fix this. Source code: https://github.com/MrQuackDuck/CorrectPause Check out more stuff on https://justempire.net Support mail: mrquackduckk@gmail.com
