What it does

The script, "skipper.js", is injected into all urls containing "amazon.*/*/video" or "netflix.com" or "disneyplus.com" or "hotstar.com" or "starplus.com".

It automatically skips Ads, intros, Credits, recaps, and anything else you don't want to watch on Netflix, Prime video and Disney Plus (Hotstar, STAR+).

How it works

The addon is observing every mutation of the dom Tree of the Website.

The exact classes may be outdated since I do not update these regularly.

On Netflix it matches the buttons with the data-uia tag containing:

• Intro: player-skip-intro
• Recap: player-skip-recap, player-skip-preplay
• Credits: next-episode-seamless-button
• Inactivity Warning: interrupt-autoplay-continue
• Basic tier ads: matched by css class .default-ltr-cache-mmvz9h and the speed is set to 16x until the ad is over

On Prime video it matches buttons with the Css Classes:

• Intro: skipelement
• Credits: nextupcard-button
• Self promoting ads: .fu4rd6c.f1cw2swo
• Paid Content: .o86fri (yallow text indicates paid films)

The freevee ad text contains the ad length which is matched by

• Freevee ads: .atvwebplayersdk-ad-timer-text

and then skipped by forwarding by the ad length -0.1 seconds which will fix a lot of issues it turns out.

Run the Extension

Chrome

To run the extension in chrome you can just load the chrome folder as an unpacked extension. But every time you modify the code you have to reload the extension on the extension page manually. I primarily just develop in firefox and then copy the code into chrome and replace browser with chrome in the code.

Firefox

Just like chrome you can temporarily load the extension by going to about:addons, clicking on the gear icon and then Install Add-ons From File. Then you can load the firefox folder as a temporary extension.

Install web-ext and Firefox for a better development experience

npm install --global web-ext to install web-ext globally

npm start to start in firefox

debug

Create a profile named test in Firefox in the about:profiles page. Then you can login into Netflix etc. in the profile and then every time you run the command you don't have to login again.

npm run profile to start in firefox with the profile "test" selected

All Commands

npm start start the firefox development

npm run start-android start on firefox android
