Overview

Bring annotation support back to YouTube™!

On January 15 2019, YouTube decided to discontinue annotations. While the feature was frequently abused, it did have many legitimate use cases, such as games, corrections, and a form of commentary that could be toggled on and off. The removal left many older videos obsolete. Annotations Restored fixes this by searching for any archived annotation files and displaying them if found. Join the Discord!: https://discord.gg/v7xMm2r8wH LATEST CHANGES (1.2.1) - Added Discord link to popup - Support for Portuguese by Gersonzao - Support for Polish by Kamil K USAGE The extension will automatically look for a copy of a video's annotations online and display them if found. Annotation files (.xml) that you have saved locally can also be loaded into the current video using the popup. PERMISSIONS Access your data for www.youtube.com - Required to load the annotations into the video player Screenshot video sources: chuggaaconroy - Mario Menu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Uwd5w1AwYU DaeOh - Annotation Tetris https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIIV6a2Pdh4 Feel free to email me with any translation fixes or create a pull request on GitHub :)

Pretty bloody good, on 99.9% of videos i've used this on, it's worked flawlessly. My only issue is that it relies on some kind of cache or web crawl to get the annotations. This means that on really obscure videos, the annotations don't show up. The only way to get them back is if the uplaoder also has the extension and uploads the annotation files. However, this happened to me on literally 1 video after using this for 4 years.

Looks good, sometimes, it needs to fix some less broken annotations, in case, it should have been working perfectly
