I actually have this installed! But I disabled it for some reason that I can't remember; I think the defaults were too aggressive and I meant to come back and configure it more precisely when I had the time. I still need to do that... thanks for making it!
The other extension I can absolutely recommend is Vinegar, which replaces hostile video players like the one on YouTube (which injects JS to close itself if you attempt to use picture-in-picture) with a native HTML5 video element.

- ezfe 4y agoDoes it include a quality picker? Vinegar does more than just put a <video> tag in
- lapcat 4y agoYes, check out the link above. Auto-select YouTube highest video quality, show video controls for all sites (not just YouTube), stop autoplaying videos for all sites (which also skips YouTube ads), etc.
- DavideNL 4y agoI’m guessing a side effect will be that SponsorBlock doesn't work anymore with this enabled?
- lapcat 4y agoI think it would still work, though I can't say for sure. In any case, it may become superfluous: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35085475 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35085475 It should be noted that while the effects are similar on YouTube, StopTheMadness and Vinegar operate in significantly different ways.
- samstave 4y agoFYI/YSK: When youre on a video with forced ads where you cannot skip through them, go PiP on the video and use the arrow keys to scrub left or right... I discovered this, then talked to a buddy at netflix, and he said that coding for PiP was a pain because PiP doesnt abide by DRM rules. What would be cool is the ability to pipe a PiP to VLC and then use VLC to save out a video....
- standing_user 4y agoSo you can take a screenshot with PiP without triggering the safeguards?
- samstave 4y agoReport back with your findings. But if you have any idea how to "pipe a PiP to VLC" let me know... I'd like to figure out how to "pipe a PiP"
- MonkeyMalarky 4y agoDoes something like that exist for Reddit? Whatever it is they use on their website is a janky piece crap.
