Mute Ads and Pause After Ads in Hulu

Download extension

Will mute Hulu when ads start. When ads finish can pause the video and play a tone. **FYI: Does not work with Adblocker running**FYI: Does not work with Adblocker or other ad blocking tools that block hulu's servers running.
3.0 fixes plug-in which broke a while back after a player update.

Current options:
New Pausing that does a better job of working with the new player
Mute Ads: When checked of all ads are muted. When show starts it is unmuted.
Pause After Ads: When checked after the ads finish the show is paused and ready to go when you hit play.
Play a tone after Ads complete: When checked a tone plays to let you know you can return to the show.
Tone Volume: Set the Volume of the tone that plays after ads complete 100 is loud. 30 is soft.
Blink title bar: When checked you can see what tab has just finished its ads and is ready to be watch. Use case if you are checking emails during the muted ads you know when the ads are done when it blinks.
2.9 fixed CLICK TO RESUME overlay to make it appear in fullscreen

2.7 issues with Playing a tone after videos end is fixed. You can turn off the tone in the options.

2.6 issues in popup player fixed.Thanks for letting me know it had stopped working

2.5 removed unnecessary permission

2.4 Now supports a volume control for the tone played whens ads finish

2.3 added another option to turn off the Blinking Title when an ad ends. It was originally designed to do that so I could tell when an ad ended while on another tab checking my email.
In some cases it is not usefull so I am allowing you the users to decide to use it or not.

Thanks for all the good ideas keep them coming.

2.2 adds an option to allow you to set if a tone plays at the end of ads to alert you if you had walked away from your computer to get a snack.

Thanks to all the people that email with issue and changes you want. I set things up the way I think they should work but really this needs to work the way you want please email with any issues you have. The last 2 changes and improvements are from recommendations from users. Thanks again.


FYI: Does not work with Adblocker running.
2.1 fixes that this now works with multiple tabs of the hulu player open.
Also now works with Pop-out.

I had been muting ads and answering emails. I decided I should be able to write a script to do this. Also noticed I would get sucked into something and then miss part of the show and have to rewind. So I also coded this to pause after the ads finished.

This is an active product and I would be willing to fix it up or change it if you have a feeling I missed something.
