Nice extension! It would be cool if it could also re-render the page to be _just_ the video player (thus solving the problem in the Gist, with all the ads).

About subtitles: in case an m3u8 stream has them, you can ask VLC to render them with a flag like `--sub-track 0`

Thanks! You can already do that. Open a new tab, and then click the icon to make the player appear. It will fill the whole tab. Then use another tab to find videos on other websites. The new-tab player will automatically collect sources and you can play it by using the sources browser tool. You can then close the tab with the original website.
