Hey @BPower0036, proud user of the YT-Nonstop extension here.
Seems like YT (or maybe the Edge browser?) changed something lately, which causes the extension to not always work anymore. Although, most of the time it does.
I understand that's a bit vague, so allow me to explain;
Mostly I play music playlists on YT - as a regular user though, I'm not an YT Music or a paying YT user in any way.
Until about 1 or 2 weeks ago, YT-Nonstop always did its job without any problems: I never had to confirm the "video is paused" dialog.
Last week I noticed the music stopped and when I opened the YT window, it had the "video is paused" dialog open.
First thing I checked was if YT-Nonstop was active and running: found out it was (always is :).
Looked up if maybe I had to update either the extension or browser, so I updated everything as well.
But it still occurs:
- I've noticed it never happens during playing a video, but when the playlist loads to the next video automatically.
I.e. everytime a video in the playlist ends, then loads next video, sometimes it opens that video with the "video is paused" dialog.
- However, this occurs occassionally as well - sometimes it even seems randomly..
But I've noticed it mostly occurs when letting the playlist run in the background passively for a while.
- Once a video is played, then YT-Nonstop does its job well again, because then the video never pauses and the dialog doesn't appear.
Tried to reproduce the behaviour, but when manually playing a previous or next video from the list, it doesn't occur.
It always occurs during the (auto) switch to next video in the playlist and after I've left it running for some time.
Considering this behaviour I'm guessing that YT recently built in a some kind check if the user has been inactive for some kind of period; then when it switches to a next vid, plus has registered an x amount of time of passiveness, it has the opportunity to pause the video and loads the dialog..
But that's just guessing ;)
Current info:
Hope this helps because I really like this extension!
