Description
* playerState.extN is briefly (and indirect) mentioned in the dev wiki: http://developer.boxee.tv/JavaScript_API
* Also in the advanced browser API example: http://developer.boxee.tv/Examples:_Advanced_Browser_API
* The current youtube control script holds code to utilize an extension for toggling HD quality: http://dir.boxee.tv/apps/js/?v=7.1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fyoutube.com
On older versions (0.9 at least) extension 0 could be used by developers. I also remember seeing the HD button in youtube clips on Boxee 1.0.
From 1.1 of Boxee, the extension button is simply not there, though provided in production code and exemplified in the documentation.
This functionality would be a great addition to the use of flash based players and would allow users to, for instance, manually set the bitrate to use or toggle subtitles on and off.
I would like to see N available extensions (not just one as before, also N depending on available screen space) to be used as freely as in the examples.
