Read full descriptionHide full description
Direct Player is a focused utility for opening Dailymotion videos in Dailymotion’s lightweight embedded player. Open the Safari extension while viewing a Dailymotion page, or paste a Dailymotion URL or video ID. It recognizes standard video pages, embed URLs, player URLs, and dai.ly short links. Privacy is built in: no analytics, advertising, account, registration, browsing-history collection, content scripts, remote code, or background tracking. The extension requests only temporary access to the active tab after you invoke it. Playback remains provided by Dailymotion, so availability, advertisements, geographic restrictions, login requirements, and removals are controlled by Dailymotion. Direct Player is an unofficial utility and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Dailymotion.
