Due to complications with Firefox extensions, at the moment (until Firefox approves my extension) you can only install the extension on either Firefox Developer Edition, Firefox Nightly, or Firefox ESR.

  1. Clone or Download the repository & extract it
  2. Navigate to about:addons
  3. Drag the src folder inside the repository to the Add-ons window

Usage

Simply navigate to https://youtube.com/tv and enjoy your videos.
