- Rated 4 out of 5by dpell23_, 5 years agoI can't get my latency below 5-6 seconds even with the best settings available, while Normal Twitch Player has a 1 to 2 seconds delay in low latency mode.
Other than that, the extension is very good. Highly recommended if you have a low-end system because the CPU and RAM usage will be very low compared to normal Twitch Player. - Rated 5 out of 5by Kaz, 5 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15954681, 5 years agoI've only been using this extension for about an hour so far, but it's allowed me to go from ~35% CPU usage to around 5% CPU usage while watching the same stream at 480p on my laptop. The only problem is that when I try to type in chat, it tells me "Login will open in a separate window." and then when I click the Log In button, I see "Login was cancelled, please try again."
This, however, is not a problem for me because I use Chatterino on the side and the overall CPU usage is lowered by so much that it's worth the minor inconvenience. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12641720, 5 years agoHost redirect doesn't work. E.g. streamer ends the stream and hosts someone, the chat gets redirected but you still see the offline screen of the streamer who just hosted. You have to right click on chat to show frame to see which channel was hosted and manually enter the channel name in the address bar.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16136704, 5 years agothis add-on is great but recently I've stopped receiving those channel points when I'm watching streams (fixed)
- Rated 5 out of 5by FTECH, 5 years agoWonderful add-on, a must-have for lower end computers. Thank you so much !
Just a question: is there a way to get the latency to broadcaster at about 1-2 seconds ? I can't seem to get it lower than 6 seconds. On the normal twitch player, I can get it to 1-2 seconds, even 0.8 sometimes. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 10852150, 5 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by MDX, 5 years agoCertainly helps with CPU but I feel there's one thing missing, picture in picture support. Is this something that can be added?

Otherwise, it's pretty decent.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Dyxati, 5 years agoIt's pretty good and doesn't stutter or gets stuck on loading, but chat doesn't work it just says "Failed to load modules" since two months at least.

Is it me or something with addon? - Rated 5 out of 5by user9969328, 5 years agoI wish Twitch itself would implement an audio-only stream... Thanks for this addon!
