YouTube periodically pauses video playback after detecting user inactivity by showing a 'Continue watching?' confirmation dialog. This extension solves the annoyance of having videos stop during long listening sessions, background music playback, or when the user is away from the keyboard.
1. User installs the extension and browses YouTube/YouTube Music normally. 2. The content script (content.js) injects autoconfirm.js into YouTube pages. 3. autoconfirm.js uses a MutationObserver to watch for the inactivity confirmation popup. 4. It monitors user activity (mouse, keyboard) to track idle state. 5. When the 'Continue watching?' popup appears and the user is idle, the extension auto-clicks the popup container to dismiss it and calls videoElement.play() to resume playback. 6. If the user has actually interacted (moved mouse, pressed keys), the extension allows normal pause behavior.

The extension contains no payment processing, no subscription logic, no feature gating, no license checks, no premium tier, and no upgrade prompts. The 'pro' keyword hits are false positives from 'processInteraction' function names. The donate-paypal.png image exists in the package but is not referenced in any source code - it is a dead asset with no functional integration. The extension is fully functional with all features available to all users.

- The extension operates entirely client-side on YouTube/YouTube Music pages. It contains no authentication logic, no login UI, no OAuth flows, no account creation, and no API calls to any authentication service. The content script and autoconfirm.js work directly on the DOM without any user identity requirement. The 'session' keyword hits refer to navigator.mediaSession (Media Session API for media key handling), not authentication sessions.
It does not work, after 30 mins it popped up again!!
it does remove the anoying popup and continues playing, but instead it will often pause the video if u rewind or forward it, so yeah not really that great, trade 1 anoyance for another..
Definitely works, but has a bad tendency to automatically play videos in the background. Great job nonetheless! Edit: Now working flawlessly. Thank you so much!
Can you make this work on music.youtube.com? It seems like it only works on youtube.com.
Simple just add on and go. Works perfectly. I highly recommend it....
Great initiative. Sadly it doesn't work for me though.
This is now my favorite addon. I can listen to music while doing other things and not have to run over to the computer every twenty minutes to unpause the video. Thanks.
So far it's working for me, thanks for making YouTube great again! XD
I love the idea, but unfortunately it doesn't work. Just got the popup again. I run ublock origin at the same time, FYI. UPDATE: It works after all. I left it running just in case, and I just saw it do it's job while watching youtube. Great job! Perhaps I should have restarted the browser or my computer after installing it. I'm not sure why it didn't work at first, but I'm sure it's working now. Thanks for your diligent efforts.
Doesn't work. Still getting the pop up even though I'm not fullscreening and my youtube tab is focused.
