Hide video duration on YouTube by Denis

Used to work perfectly now every time I click the bar it switches to showing how much time is left in the video. Makes this extension absolutely useless...
In the recent update, the "time" now toggles back and forth between elapsed time and time remaining whenever ANY button is clicked (fast-forward, rewind, or the time element itself), which defeats the entire purpose of this extension. This is otherwise a 5-star extension, please fix this as soon as possible and I will update my rating. For dev: Currently watching a video with duration of 3:08:49 When page loads, works as intended. watched for a little over an hour then paused: <span class="ytp-time-current">1:07:24</span> Clicked button to rewind 10s, it now shows remaining time: <span class="ytp-time-current">-2:01:35</span>
can't block duration until you've already opened the video
Doesn't work on youtube
I would have given this a 5 star review weeks ago, but similar to another reviewer there's now an issue where navigating with the controls now starts showing the remaining time left, which makes this extension completely useless :(
It's true that it won't hide the duration until after the video is opened (Even with "Hide automatically" rules set), i.e search results and suggestions will still show durations.
