Changelog: 1.2.4: - Fixed multiple GIFs loading at once - Fixed GIFs randomly unpausing (might still unpause if the GIFs progress is under 5%) - Fixed other reported issues (If you encounter any bugs, specific GIFs not switching to HD, etc, please open an issue on the Support tab. Also might need to tweak some values based on user feedback.) 1.2.3: Fixed race condition (stopping at start) on some RedGIFs GIFs and fixed share button sometimes popping up. Please feel free to report specific GIFs you encounter issues with at the Support tab. 1.2.2: Fixed switching to HD on RedGIFs new design. 1.2.1: Fixed rare occasions of RedGIFs GIFs not switching to HD. NEW in 1.2: RedGIFs support! Currently supports Gfycat, RedGIFs and reddit.

Great idea but sadly it seems to make playback a bit buggy and recently if you switch tabs after pausing the video it always keeps resuming which is really annoying. Uninstalled for now. Thanks though.

Hello Laurence, I'm sorry to hear you have problems with my extension. Unfortunately I don't experience those issues you have mentioned. Also it doesn't intervene with the playback itself whatsoever, so I personally don't think the extension is at fault for any playback issues. Please help me mitigate the issue and let me know under which circumstances the resuming happens and with which GIFs. Also what kind of issue do you have with the playback? Please let me know by opening a ticket under the Support tab above or drop me an email which you can find at the overview at "Contact developer". Thank you very much!

Automatically turns on audio for ALL gifs so expect to be blasted with audio if you use this. it worked before but now it's not.

Hello Tom, I have already commited a fix for that and many other bugs in 1.2.4. I sent it in for approval yesterday, so it should update today or tomorrow. It's hard to keep track of Gfycat and RedGIFs questionable changes, but I try to keep this extension alive and working. Please check if the problem persists with the new update when it comes out soon. Thanks!

Why this extension even needs to be a thing is just baffling. But I guess that's what happens when your platform isn't making money and you decide to charge people for automatically setting gifs to "HD".. when "HD" should be the default in this day and age. Just sad, really.
