Show HN: Eliminate video buffering with a Chrome extension
This extension will replace videos on websites with a custom one that use download acceleration to prebuffer as you watch.
It works on most websites, including Youtube. Fortuitously, it is also able to bypass Youtube's anti-adblock shenanigans.
I started this project in high school to fix the terrible video players used on most websites. Since then, I've received a lot of feedback from my users and FastStream has improved significantly. Now that most bugs have been ironed out, I think I am ready to share it here on HN.
It is still undergoing rapid development (multiple releases every week), so let me know if you see any bugs or have feature suggestions. I usually address such requests on Github within 2-3 days.

Show HN: YouTube banned adblockers so I built an extension to skip their ads
Yeah all the pieces are already there, but I was trying to make something like a player replacer that would let the user load arbitrary glsl shaders to use. The idea being to provide usable upscaling or filters for weak connections or old videos, correct shaky videos, etc. in real time.
I just found this for fsr [0] which might work for the upscaling use case.
