niico - A Chrome Extension for Niconico Videos

niico is a Chrome extension developed by 早寝ハヤオ that allows users to browse and watch Niconico videos without leaving the current page. With just a click on a video link, the player will open, providing a seamless video watching experience. Whether it's rankings, search results, or any Niconico video within the subdomains, niico can be launched effortlessly.

One of the key features of niico is the Tab Player, which enables users to watch videos without having to navigate away from the current page. This feature is perfect for multitasking or simply wanting to keep an eye on a video while browsing other content.

Another useful feature is the Mini Player, which allows users to adjust the size and position of the player according to their preferences. This flexibility ensures a comfortable viewing experience.

niico also offers fine-grained control over various aspects of the player. Users can access settings such as fast-forward/rewind duration, playback speed, comment speed and opacity, line and font size, and more, through the gear icon on the player.

Finding videos is made easier with niico. Users can quickly access past videos and public playlists from the current video's uploader, their own NicoRepo, and viewing history, eliminating the hassle of manually searching for videos.

One of the standout features of niico is its compatibility with the entire Niconico family. Users can launch the player on Niconico Douga, Niconico Community, Niconico Channel, and other subdomains within the niconico family.

Please note that niico only supports the subdomains under "nicovideo.jp" and does not support live broadcasts.

For bug reports, feature requests, or any other feedback, users can reach out to the developer through Twitter or their blog on Niconico. The developer is known to be responsive on Twitter.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
