Pros
Pro Blocks a wide selection of annoying ads
AdBlock blocks various kinds of ads found on all websites such as video ads on YouTube, Facebook ads, flashy banners, pop-ups, pop-unders etc.
Pro Pins the video to a corner of the screen if you scroll down
With this feature you can read the entire page without ever losing sight of the video.
Pro Control the volume with the mouse wheel anytime the cursor is over the player
This is especially handy in videos where there's a lot of dynamic in volume levels, unlike the slider at the bottom you can raise or lower it almost before you're finished forming the thought to do so. It also allows you to set a default start volume for all videos instead of the usual 100%.
Pro Specify your preferred resolutions
Ever had a network-heavy process running while watching YouTube and had the site start loading videos at a grainy resolution instead of taking an extra few seconds to buffer adequately at a higher one? Not anymore with this extension! You can set up to four resolutions in order of preference and it will ensure that if any are available for that video it will use them rather than adapt.
