Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the extension.
Is this extension safe?
Yes. The extension is completely open-source and uses minimal permissions � only the ability to read TMDB and IMDb pages to extract content IDs. No data is collected, tracked, or sent to any third party. All communication is directly with the TMDB API and Movorastar.
Why isn't it on the Chrome Web Store?
We made the extension available for direct download to keep it free and avoid Chrome Web Store restrictions. Loading it manually via Developer Mode is a one-time, 30-second process. The extension functions identically to a store-installed version.
Will it work on Firefox or Edge?
Yes! Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi all support loading unpacked extensions. For Firefox, you'll need to temporarily load it via about:debugging. The extension is built on Manifest V3 which is supported by all modern Chromium browsers.
Does it work with IMDb?
Yes. The extension detects IMDb pages and automatically resolves the IMDb ID (tt...) to a TMDB ID via the TMDB API. A brief loading indicator appears while resolving, then the button takes you directly to Movorastar.
Will updates be automatic?
Not automatically. When a new version is released, you'll need to download the updated ZIP from this page and re-load it via "Load unpacked". We'll post update notices on this page and in our Telegram group.
The button doesn't appear � what's wrong?
Make sure you're on a supported page: themoviedb.org/movie/..., themoviedb.org/tv/..., or imdb.com/title/.... If it still doesn't appear, try refreshing the page or re-loading the extension from chrome://extensions.
