About

NoPause Playback - Web Player Anti-Pause is a Chrome browser extension specifically designed to prevent videos and audio on webpages from automatically pausing in various situations. It is ideal for users who need continuous media playback in the background while multitasking during video playback.

Main Features
Anti-pause protection for normal playback scenarios: Automatically intercepts common pause trigger mechanisms on websites, including:
1. Switching tabs
2. Minimizing the browser window
3. Mouse leaving the page or screen
4. Pausing in Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode
5. Window losing focus
6. Multi-monitor (secondary screen)
7. Websites detecting pauses via JavaScript (such as blur, visibilitychange events)
8. Pauses triggered by timers or anti-idle detection
    And some other trigger mechanisms...

Website Management: Users can manually add, remove, or manage specific websites/domains. The anti-pause function only applies to websites on the list.
Usage Statistics: Records the number of times the extension is triggered for each website.
Multi-language Support: The interface supports English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

Recent Version Updates
In the recent version 4.0, extensive optimizations were made, supporting more websites and improving compatibility and user experience. When opening a webpage containing videos, it will automatically play the video, avoiding the need to click the play button.

Usage Instructions
1. After installation, click the extension icon in the browser toolbar to open the management interface.
2. Enter the target website's URL or domain in the input field. (When you open a webpage in a tab, the webpage's URL will be automatically recognized and entered into the extension's input field; click "Add" to include it.)
3. Click the "Add" button to add it to the list (In version 4.0, it takes effect immediately without refreshing, but it is still recommended to refresh the page after the first addition).
4. Thereafter, when visiting the website, the extension will automatically take effect, and media content will not pause due to the above situations.

Free Version Usage Limitations
1. Each website has a limited usage count of 20 times.
When approaching the limit (at 15-19 times and above), a yellow warning will be displayed. Once the usage count for an individual website reaches the upper limit, the extension will stop functioning.
2. To remove the restrictions, subscribe to the Premium version to use the extension's features without limits.
3. If you have previously supported the developer through donations, you can contact them with proof of the order, and after verification, a permanent free account can be activated.

Free and Premium Version Pricing
1. Free Version: 20 usage limit per website, unlimited number of websites can be added (but the same website cannot be repeatedly deleted/added).
2. Premium Monthly Subscription: $4.9/month, unlimited usage and unlimited website additions during the subscription period.
3. Premium Quarterly Subscription: $9.9 (total, equivalent to about $3.3/month), unlimited usage and unlimited website additions during the subscription period.
