User reviews
I very much like the idea but it does not work properly with me. Everytime I open a new tab, I have to adjust the settings again. Otherwise, the extension comes back to default, which is 720p. Kinda defeats the purpose...

Uma extensão que eu estava procurando, que limitasse o vídeo até 30 FPS. Inicialmente eu tinha apenas elogios, 5 estrelas, mas percebi que é muito bugada: em vários vídeos a resolução está limitada a 720p, mesmo eu não tendo selecionado essa opção.
