  🔖 TimeMachine – Save, Organize, and Manage YouTube Timecodes Instantly
  
  Transform the way you use YouTube with TimeMachine, the ultimate extension for capturing your favorite moments, organizing key timestamps, and returning to them instantly.
  
  Whether you're a student, video editor, musician, developer, or simply a passionate YouTube user, this tool helps you structure and manage timecodes like never before.
  
  v1.1.3
  ✨ New Features
  Manager
  
  Added a dedicated page for managing all your timecodes, accessible from the open-in-tab button in the popup
  Videos are displayed full-width with their timecodes organised in a card gallery
  Global search bar to filter videos, timecodes and folders
  Real-time statistics (number of videos, timecodes, folders)
  
  Folders
  
  Create folders to organise your videos
  Drag and drop a video into a folder
  Rename and delete folders
  Folders are collapsible: clicking the header opens or closes them
  
  Export
  
  Export any video or folder in 4 formats: Youtube Desc., JSON, Reference List (Markdown), CSV
  The Youtube Desc. format copies the content directly to your clipboard, ready to paste into a YouTube video description
  Global export available from the Settings page
  
  Clicking a timecode
  
  Clicking a timecode from the Manager or the Popup jumps playback directly to the right moment if the video is already open in a tab
  If the video is not open, a new tab opens at the correct timecode
  
  
  🐛 Bug Fixes
  Timecode button on YouTube
  
  Complete rewrite of the button injection logic: it now appears automatically when any YouTube video page loads, with no manual action required
  Fixed detection during SPA navigation (moving from video to video without a page reload)
  The button now correctly re-injects itself on each new video visited
  
  Video detection
  
  Removed the "Youtube video not detected" message that incorrectly appeared
  The popup now retries contacting the content script several times before showing an error, to handle YouTube's loading delays
  
  v1.1.4
  🐛 Bug Fixes
  Fixed a bug in the Manager Timecode search where folder search was not working

  🐛 Bug Fixes
  This update fixes the timecode save button embedded in YouTube video pages, which was displaying incorrectly following a YouTube interface update.

The extension has also been fully unified in English for a consistent experience, and several minor display bugs have been fixed to ensure better day-to-day reliability.
