----- DEPRECATED -----
You may still use this extension, but it will no longer be maintained.
Please use Tampermonkey and the following script:

----------------------------
Assumption: You use YouTube's watch later list not as a real playlist but to collect interesting (and not necessarily related) videos.
Problem: When you start a single video from the playlist page, the following videos (related or not) will be played too, automatically.
Old solution: An extension called NextVid Stopper which does not work anymore.
New solution: This extension ;) It redirects the start of a single video from the watch later page to the single video player instead of the playlist player. You can still click the "Play All" button to play the list as a whole.
---
History:
v0.2: The single play behaviour can be configured for all playlists or for watch lists only.
v0.1: Initial release, works only for the watch list.
---
Known problems:
If you have the watch later list already playing in one tab and, in another tab, open a single video from the watch later list YouTube somehow makes an additional redirect and you get two entries in the browser history.
---
Required Permissions:
"storage" to save the options mode to chrome
"tabs" to verify that a request comes from the watch later list
"webRequest", "webRequestBlocking" to redirect the request to the correct player
"*://www.youtube.com/" to access YouTube
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
