Disable YouTube autoplay while submitting #384

Open ajayyy opened 4 years ago

I noticed that autoplay kind of breaks the extension when it kicks in while either currently marking a sponsor time (which ended at the end of the video, automatically causing autplay to kick in after a few seconds), or while the Re-Skip alert is shown. Clicking re-skip in the second instance will bring the player to the skipping timestamp of the previous video, but in the current one. Well tldr probably disable autoplay when creating a sponsor time or on some other stuff.

Disadvantages: This could make people confused if they accidentally started a submission.

this is partially exposed in #1278 but not sure how reliable it is, a selector + js override should do the trick otherwise

Preventing playlist autoplay seems a lot more useful than the original request of time-based autoplay

mchangrh commented 2 years ago

disabling playlist autoplay is trivial

the disadvantage of confusing people can be mitigated by automatically popping up the submission dialog when the end of the video is reached.

note that the autoplay also needs to be suppressed when previewing the submission.

i kind of don't understand why this wasn't fixed right away ... i find this issue so annoying that it pretty much totally discourages me from contributing endcard segments, and i suspect i'm by far not the only one.
