Previous approach (DOM snapshot via executeScript) failed on Pornhub because:
- Video player loads asynchronously via JavaScript
- HLS manifest arrives via XHR/fetch AFTER page render
- <video> element only shows blob: URL, not the actual manifest
New approach:
- Content script injects interceptor into MAIN world at document_start
- Interceptor patches XMLHttpRequest and fetch() to capture .m3u8 URLs
- Periodic DOM scans detect HLS player instances on <video> elements
- Global config object scanning for embedded stream URLs
- Popup queries content script via chrome.tabs.sendMessage for real-time data
- If no DOM videos found but content script has data, create entries from intercepted sources
Changes:
- content.js: Full rewrite with main-world injection + XHR/fetch interception
- index.js: Query content scripts via messages, merge with DOM snapshot
- manifest.json: all_frames + document_start for early injection
