Why do I need to install the Web Player’s Chrome extension?
For many reasons:
- This allows you to have screenshots in your Yodeck account. To take a screenshot of the web player, the tab displaying the content must be visible in the current window.
- Volume schedule in web pages.
- Access to all web pages. All playback is accessible even for web pages that have an x-frame-options or content-security-policy HTTP header.
- The Yodeck web player extension works for all chromium-based browsers since they can all host chrome extensions (Edge, Chrome. Brave, Opera, etc.).
- When the extension is installed for the first time or updated, it will reload all web player’s pages that are open.
