[h1][b]How to fix this mod (HTML5)[/b][/h1]
⚠️ GMod developers are working on a fix, this can't be fixed by the mod author! ⚠️
This addon no longer works on the default version of Garry's Mod. To fix this, you need to switch to the 'x86-64' branch of GMod (Note: this branch is under active development and may cause your game to crash). [url=https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Dev_Branch]Read the guide for switching to the 'dev' branch on the wiki[/url], but remember to choose 'x86-64' instead.
As for why this mod broke, YouTube has stopped supporting old video encodings which GMod relied on. The GMod devs are working on a fix by updating the game to use Chromium/CEF. You can [url=https://discordapp.com/invite/gmod]follow progress in the #next-update channel of the GMod Discord.[/url]

[h1][b]Alternative: Metastream (not compatible with Garry's Mod)[/b][/h1]
I'm working on a new web application, called Metastream, which provides similar features to this mod and supports more websites to synchronize. Try it out if you're interested.

[h1][b]FAQ[/b][/h1]
[b]Q:[/b] Can the ads be closed on YouTube?
[b]A:[/b] Yes. While in Sandbox, hold C to reveal the mouse cursor. Then simply click the 'x' on the ad that appears on the media player screen.
[b]Q:[/b] How do I adjust the screen brightness?
[b]A:[/b] If the screen is too bright, it's likely caused by either bloom or HDR. Try disabling Bloom in the video options menu.
[b]Q:[/b] How do I request a website to be shown on the media player?
[b]A:[/b] Enter the following command into the console (must be the server host) to allow any URL to be requested: mediaplayer_allow_webpages 1
[b]Q:[/b] Why do I only see a white screen on the media player?
[b]A:[/b] I've been told this is due to running the game in DirectX 8 mode. Try setting the DirectX level to 9 by opening the console and typing "mat_dxlevel 90"
