Reviews & Comments of Youtube Auto Pause chrome extension

Simply does not work. Activating a tab starts playing the video. Always. Which means that the video can start playing when you don't want it to.

Almost exactly what I want, except it doesn't work for videos you open in new tabs. Switching to those tabs will play the videos immediately, even if you don't have the resume functionality enabled.

After looking at dozens of other garbage extensions, I finally found one that actually works. Thanks a lot!

Doesn't work. Temporary solution (copy and paste for each youtube visit) ``` function toggleYoutubeVideo(value = null) { const videoElements = document.querySelectorAll("video"); // contains false positives too if (!videoElements?.length) throw new Error("No video elements found"); const mainVideoElement = Array.from(videoElements).find((videoElement) => videoElement.src.includes("blob:https") ); if (!mainVideoElement) throw new Error("Main video not found"); switch (value) { case "play": mainVideoElement.play(); break; case "pause": mainVideoElement.pause(); break; default: mainVideoElement.getAttribute("paused") ? mainVideoElement.play() : mainVideoElement.pause(); break; } } window.addEventListener("focus", function () { // document.title = "focused"; toggleYoutubeVideo("play"); }); window.addEventListener("blur", function () { // document.title = "not focused"; toggleYoutubeVideo("pause"); }); ```

Awesome but doesn't work with 2+ monitors the window is clearly out of focus and the video still plays ,have to switch between tabs to make it work which defeats the purpose

This is great for watching tutorials. But sometimes i would want the video to not pause. So it would be nice to have a shortcut to temporarily disable the pause functionality. Otherwise i have to keep pressing the extension icon to uncheck those and check again few minutes later when i need them. Even better would be if it disabled itself for a certain minutes. Then it automatically enables itself. That way i wont have to remember to check those boxes again. Otherwise this extension is great help.

amazing

NICE! JUST WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Works as expected. Nice work.

I use Enhancer for YouTube™2.0.101 on my Chrome Browser. I study tutorials. In the last month it's function to pause Youtube has not been working. I reported in bug section but no fix. I study a tut to a point then copy paste the spot on the vid using Share option Youtube. Bookmark it. Open where left off next day. I really need the video to pause at this point. So love this Youtube Auto Pause by drodil it works along with Enhancer. Good job!
