[Bug] Conflict with Alternate Player for twitch.tv #3196

Description

@somnomania

Several days ago, after Alternate Player (found here) had an update, chat on Twitch was no longer showing, it was all black. F12 showed that several things were getting blocked by another extension; some testing revealed it to be PB causing the issue. The trouble is that I can't disable PB for those tabs, because they load in my browser as (for example) chrome-extension://bhplkbgoehhhddaoolmakpocnenplmhf/player.html?channel=wolfconservationcenter, not a URL. PB's settings wouldn't let me put that into the whitelist, either.

I've attempted to work this out with AP's dev, who was extremely rude and basically told me that if there was a problem, it was mine and not his and to uninstall his extension if Privacy Badger was important to me, which it is. I would still like to keep using AP, as it makes Twitch (which I have four pinned tabs on) a vastly more comfortable and streamlined experience, but if there's really no way to keep PB from engaging with those tabs then I guess I'll have to get rid of AP and hope another extension comes along that does the same things.

I'm on Windows 10, running Vivaldi 8.0.4033.54 (Official Build) (64-bit), which is using Chromium 148.0.7778.282
Extended Stable channel.
