A simple extension that shows video chapters in a popup so you don't have to dig through the description. What's new: - AI Chapter Generation — For videos without chapters, use AI to automatically generate chapters from the video transcript. Supports clipboard mode (copy transcript to use with any AI) and direct API mode (connect to any OpenAI-compatible API like local vLLM/Ollama). - Video Speed Controls — Quickly adjust playback speed directly from the popup. The current speed is shown in the button label. What it does: - Shows chapters for the current video - Click one to jump to it - AI chapter generation for videos without chapters - Video playback speed controls - Quick links to Home, Subscriptions, Watch Later, History - Alt+Y to open (customizable in chrome://extensions/shortcuts) - Works with dark mode Changelog: 1.0.353 - Improved AI chapter generation: rewrote prompt to reduce over-segmentation — targets fewer, broader chapters by merging related segments and enforcing coarser granularity 1.0.351 - Fixed active chapter not being highlighted (YouTube changed their DOM, switched to video.currentTime for reliability) 1.0.348 - Fixed false chapter appearing on videos without chapters (affiliate redirect links in description were misidentified as chapter timestamps) - Fixed transcript extraction broken by YouTube DOM update (now uses ytd-transcript-segment-renderer) 1.0.345 - Added video playback speed controls in popup - Added settings page to configure AI API endpoint, model, and prompt - Active chapter is now highlighted as you watch 1.0.328 - Added AI chapter generation for videos without chapters - Clipboard mode: copies the transcript so you can paste it into any AI app - Direct API mode: connects to any OpenAI-compatible API (e.g. local Ollama/vLLM) 1.0.318 - Added Alt+Y hotkey to open/close popup - Hotkey is customizableA simple extension that shows video chapters in a popup so you don't have to dig through the description.
