(04.01.2020) Add-on still works but I too have recently run into bug? creating double thumbnails. Few people complained about add-on being broken. Actulaly the problem is with youtube's new layout not add-on.
Simple solution for it is adding "f6=8" value (without quotes) to a PREF cookie, r creating PREF cookie with this value if you don't have one already.
That value will change youtube layout to old layout.
Original review:
Add-on itself is very useful as it makes my life much easier.
However, I tend to open several videos at once and then watch them. I have noticed that add-on marks videos as watched the moment I open them in new tab, without actually hitting the play button.
It would make much more sense, for me anyway, if the add-on marked videos as watched after I watched them, not before.

thank you for your feedback, i understand your concerns. however, there might be some users who stop watching certain movies a minute or two before they are over because they might contain advertisements. in this case, the video would not be marked as watched, contrary to what they expect. handling this issue is thus quite a challenge.
thank you - simon
