What our analysis found

Native MPEG-Dash + HLS Playback, used by 70,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. Its permissions mean it can read and change data on all websites. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in May 2024.

Analyst notes

The extension's permission set and use of declarativeNetRequest are required for its core functionality of redirecting streaming media URLs to a built-in player. No external network communication, data collection, or code injection is present. The ML model's pattern matches originate from the Angular polyfill and standard bundler output, not malicious behavior. Publisher reputation, user ratings, and the extension's long history support a benign assessment.

About this extension

Allow the browser to play HLS (m3u8) or MPEG-Dash (mpd) video urls 'natively'

Read the publisher’s full description

Extension is not for sale or third party ad integration. Allows HLS and MPEG-DASH native playback in Chrome browser. Click on any m3u8 or mpd link inside Chrome to play it directly in a new tab. By default, the browser downloads any m3u8 and mpd files that were requested. This plugin checks any links to see if they match. If that's the case, it opens a new tab on a video player that uses the hls.js and dashjs library. This extension is just a wrapper for those players on Chrome. Please read the release notes on install before use. Report any issues to https://github.com/Palethorn/nas-extension/issues
