open-in-mpv

Web extension that opens the video in your current browser tab directly in the mpv player.

Browser extensionfreeglobal

open-in-mpv is a lightweight web extension for Chrome and Firefox that sends the video currently playing in a browser tab straight into the mpv media player, using a small native helper and a custom protocol handler, with playlist and queue support. It's for mpv users who want to hand off browser video playback to their preferred player instead of watching in-browser.
