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 was working great before recent times Now Youtube added some other ways to stop videos from looping. If you listen to music or watch video on repeat for long it is starts pretending like it is trying load it (running circle), but I am pretty sure I've never had this issue before and nothing changed in my Internet functionality and properties, so I think Youtube found another way to stop video from long loop. And I think it is based on duration of running video , not count of loops, I also listen to podcasts and sometimes it can stop on already 2nd loop.
FUNZIONA. non so perche' 2 commenti dicono di no ?! -.-

Works as advertised. I have usually multiple youtube tabs open, has been working great without any extra steps needed.
Thank you, good job! While everything is working properly
When wearing an AirPods, I pause the music by tapping the AirPods twice. While using this program, I can't pause music by this way.
Todavía no lo he usado pero por pinta parece bueno

It's nice that it keeps youtube from stopping, however there are some bugs with it. It is not media key friendly and if you pause it using mediakeys, it will start playing again. When the window is minimized as well is influences whether or not it works. Sometimes it'll just pause after a trackswitch and you have to push play on media keys again. However media keys then work.
Works perfectly! I was a little concerned downloading because of some of the reviews saying you had to have the youtube tab open, but I've had no issues with it for the several months I've been using it now. I'll have yt open in a different tab or even a different window and my music plays nonstop for hours! This thing has been a huge lifesaver, thank you lawfx!
