Accelerates video #16

Open matthewsanetra opened 4 months ago

Hi!

Recently I've been bumping into some issues on YouTube:

Sometimes:

When this happens I have to refresh the page 3-4 times on average until it doesn't accelerate the video. That might be because by then YouTube doesn't try playing beginning ads?

There are no video issues if its a mid-roll ad, that still works perfectly.

Thank you for the extension, it's been very useful :)

Hi Matt,

I've heard that Youtube has been testing different video ad's some of which have that issue.

Unfortunately I haven't gotten served those video ads so I haven't been able to open up inspector tools & see what the difference is to change the extension to be defensive around it.

If you're consistently getting that issue perhaps you could try to trouble shoot it it and submit a PR.
