道高一尺、魔高一丈。 Youtube 現在連自動跳過也不行 大概是真的希望大家都變成 Click Monkey …

EXACTLY what i was looking for, & works like a charm! Awesome praise towards the developer, especially for the continued updates! (P.S. I truly hope that channels will still get ad revenue, even if the ads are detected to have been sped up. Dear developer, please keep us notified if you hear any confirmation regarding whether or not this is the case.)
