Script for youtube that disables autoplay and annotations?


Recommended Posts

I find myself watching allot via YouTube but the thing that annoys me the most is the stupid annotations and the insistence of auto playing the next video that might be related to what you're currently watching.  Is there a script or something for FF that I can add to stop this? I already have html5 video not playing automatically, but inside of YouTube this doesn't mater after the first video. I know that it can be turned of per session but I'm looking for a permanent fix, if such a thing exits. Thanks!

You can disable autoplay in the right corner.

Edit:

Rereading your post... I don't know if you have already turned off or not, but I've never seen another video after I had this thing off. It works wonders.

Click on your picture (top-right corner), and click the gear button. This will bring you to YouTube Account Settings. 

 

Hit Playback, and uncheck "Show annotations and in-video notifications"

Hehehe :p

 

Then, OP, try this:

Or if you want something more extreme, this:

I know about this option, however I am looking for a permanent solution, not just a per video.

    • I think you misread the article. The proposed features doesn't create articles, it adds a summery section to existing articles that is AI generated, and based on the screenshot provided, does make it very clear that it is machine generated.
    • Lol, who still expects privacy in a facecrook-owned product these days? Let alone one that's 100% cloud hosted and doesn't function offline...
    • I stand by my "reading comprehension" statement. Every single point you bring up here I have already replied to in detail in. I am not going to spend time repeating myself to someone who isn't reading what I say. I am happy to have a conversation if you want to respond to anything I have said. I will happily admit when I am wrong if it comes to that. If you are just going to keep repeating your original claims and I have already responded to them, then it sounds like neither of us have any more to add to the conversation.
    • LG's UltraGear 32GX870A-B OLED gaming monitor hits a new low price by Paul Hill Are you in the US and looking for a top-of-the-line gaming monitor? Then be sure to check out the LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitor; it’s now discounted by 14% from its $1,400 list price, down to $1,210. This means you’ll be saving $190 if you decide to buy it now at its lowest price so far. Check out the buying link at the end of the article. If this monitor is still too high in price, there is also the 27-inch model available with a 20% discount bringing the price down to $796.99. In this piece, I will be focusing on the larger model, so be sure to double check the details of the 27-inch model separately for differences. If you were thinking about buying this as a Father’s Day gift, it is not going to arrive in time with standard delivery; however, you can get a Prime member trial to get it in time. 4K 240Hz or FHD 480Hz? One of the big features with the LG UltraGear OLED gaming monitor is the VESA-certified Dual Mode. It lets you select 4K Ultra-HD at 240Hz for graphically rich games where you want to see all the details or Full HD (1080p) at 480Hz for fast-paced titles. If you’re in a single-player game and want to take in all the details, the first option will be best. If you’re playing an intense multiplayer shooter, then the second option will be better to reduce lag further. Speaking of lag, this monitor supports an impressive 0.03ms GtG response time and has AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and is also Nvidia G-Sync compatible. This should ensure the monitor works well with both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards. OLED visuals and gaming experience Other notable features of this LG gaming monitor are its VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification, 275 nits typical and 1,300 nits peak brightness. With all this, the monitor can render deep blacks, vivid colors, and bright highlights, delivering a superior HDR viewing experience that is especially beneficial for gaming and cinematic content in low-light environments. It features an impressive 1.5M:1 contrast ratio, an anti-glare, low reflection OLED screen, has built-in speakers and DTS Headphone:X support via 4-pole headphone jack, and it has an ergonomic stand with height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments. While the “bass-driven” built-in speakers are nice for a basic setup, serious gamers, who this monitor is aimed at, will likely have a more comprehensive sound setup in place anyway that outperforms what this monitor provides. In terms of connectivity, the LG UltraGear OLED has two HDMI 2.1 ports and USB Type-C (65W power delivery). The DP 2.1 ports deliver ultra-fast data speeds for high refresh rate gameplay, helping to reduce lag and get the edge in competitive games. Finally, there is another feature called Switch App that turns your screen into a multitasking hub for work, gaming, and streaming. It lets you create up to 6 sections, customize the layouts, or launch video calls with one hotkey. This allows you to easily switch between your PC and the in-built webOS streaming platform using shortcuts. Is the LG 32GX870A-B worth it? The LG UltraGear OLED definitely offers standout features that help to justify the price, namely the up to 480Hz refresh rate. Other features like VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification will also make the games you play look more accurate color-wise and if you don’t already have speakers, the monitor provides a “bass-driven” speaker setup for at least decent baseline audio. If you are a serious gamer, this monitor deserves consideration given the discount, it’s also at its lowest-ever price, so you’re not paying over the odds. If you still want a good monitor, but don’t want to pay as much, check out the 27-inch model. LG UltraGear OLED 32-inch: $1,209.14 (Amazon US) / MSRP $1,399.99 LG UltraGear OLED 27-inch: $796.99 (Amazon US) / MSRP $999.99 This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

In both cases the true author has agreed to do the work without being publicly credited. Don't get me wrong, I find the entire thing disgusting. Perhaps we agree but have slightly different standards for what the word "shady" means.
