Firefox add-on that opens youtube videos in an external player

Opens YouTube videos and playlists in mpv, and nukes the crappy YouTube player.

Installation:

  1. Be on Linux
  2. Install mpv
  3. Write your youtube creds to ~/.netrc, should look something like the example on the bottom of this file
  4. Install the xpi in this directory

If you want to hack on this, it's a jetpack add on and works like you'd expect if you know how jetpack add ons work.
