This extension makes a custom protocol (mpc) for youtube videos so they open automatically on MPC-BE instead of the browser. Great if you like to watch 5.1 videos that are not supported by your browser. Make sure your MPC-BE is updated since youtube changes their code quite frequently.

Steps.
1. Install the extension on tampermonkey
2. Once its running, click a youtube link, it will say that the application needed to read the mpc protocol is not present, or something similar.
3. Go to your browser settings (In firefox about:preferences) and at the APPLICATIONS section, type MPC
4. On content type "mpc" select your MPC-BE exe file, usually located at C:\Program Files\MPC-BE\mpc-be64.exe
5. Go to youtube.com and click any video link, then select "Always use this application to open mpc links"

And it's done, the link will open on MPC-BE

Update V 1.4
The script will automatically PROMPT for downloading the automatically generated SRT so you can drag and drop it into your MPC player window and play the videos with subtitles.
