Lyve

How many times are you watching a youtube video and are wanting the direct responses other viewers have had at that specific moment in the video? This extension provides the solution. Lyve turns any YouTube video into a live-style chat experience - and it comes already populated. Lyve automatically pulls in the video's own timestamped comments and drops each one onto the timeline at the moment it references, so chat plays in sync as you watch - even on older or quiet videos. Add your own messages on top, anchored to the exact moment you post them; rewind and future messages hide again, just like a live-stream replay. Features: • Pre-filled chat - folds the video's existing timestamped YouTube comments into the timeline automatically, each shown at the moment it mentions and marked as from YouTube • Time-synced chat that follows the video timeline • Click any message's timestamp to jump the video to that moment • Danmaku mode - scrolling "bullet chat" across the video (top/bottom, adjustable spread, optional username color) • Emotes - 7TV + BetterTTV global packs, full emoji via “:”, add any creator's set • Free account to chat (email or Sign in with Google); viewing needs no account • Personalize your identity - display name, username color, profile banner • Identity badges - Creator, Moderator, Member, Staff, Beta, Founder • Creator tools (beta)- verify your channel, add moderators, set slow mode / emote-only • Draggable, lockable panel + in-video overlay mode + auto-hiding composer • Per-viewer profanity filter and keyboard-shortcut protection Lyve is currently in private beta. An account is required to post. Viewing is read-only until your account is approved. Lyve is an independent third-party extension.
