Disable Ambient mode and Annotations

Closed this issue · 13 comments

By default Ambient mode and Annotations are enabled. I have to disable them manually each session. Would be nice if this extension could take care of that.

Good idea, I'll add it to my list

Implemented!

It only works after clicking on the Settings of a video. Is it possible to make it work immediately?

@BoostCookie thanks for letting me know.

The latest version (4.3.27) should have a fix.

I'm sorry, but I'm on 4.3.33 now and it now does not work at all anymore. Annotations and Ambient Mode just stay on now, even after clicking the settings wheel.

hmm... do you mind sending me a screenshot of the menu after clicking the settings wheel?

There you go.

Danke! What other YouTube extensions do you have installed?

Bitte! I also have Return YouTube Dislike and SponsorBlock. Though for testing I've now set your AddOn to be allowed in private windows (and it is the only one allowed in private windows). So there should not be any clashes with other AddOns in a private window. And the problem still appears.
Are you not able to reproduce it? I'm on Firefox 110.0.1 (64-bit).

Yea it's working okay for me, I'm on the same version of Firefox too. The next time I work on this I'll try switching to the German site and see if I can reproduce it.

My YouTube is set to
Language: English (US)
Location: Germany
I have no idea about Firefox extensions, but could the OS make a difference? I'm on Artix Linux.
EDIT: Just tried it on Windows. Still does not work.

Just pushed a potential fix: version (4.3.34)

Yes, I can confirm that it is working now. Thank you very much!
