Alternate Player for Twitch.tv (Firefox)

Alternate Player for Twitch.tv is an extension you can access in the Firefox store. It's a simple alternative for the already existing player, but with a few key upgrades, of course. Don't waste time trying to make things work faster or with fewer interruptions on Twitch by using who knows what software. Try this extension, and decide on your own if it is worth it in the end.

This extension wouldn't be relevant if it didn't try to improve the current, existing solution. As it happens, while using this program the user will experience fewer playback issues, meaning fewer stutters and faster buffering times. There's an audio mode created for those who want to listen to music, thus improving your bandwidth by eliminating the video part.

This extension also deals with the chat feature of the service, opening chests automatically for the user. The size of the chat can be adjusted to any required or desired dimension. It can also be repositioned. The extension allows one to do all of these actions also while in full-screen mode.

Some rather small adjustments that might have been missed by the user include being able to change the volume with your mouse wheel, coloring the player interface to your desire, and removing the chat entirely. Depending on your choices, the extension will consume more or fewer resources. Regardless, even at its peak resource usage, it will still do better than the original solution.

Alternate Player for Twitch.tv is an extension that should be taken into consideration by anybody using the service. It improves the overall quality of content and also lowers resource usage. There are plenty of features to choose from, all of which allow the user to tailor the experience to their liking, without requiring too much computer knowledge.
