QuieNet Extension

Ynet is a great site, but the auto-playing embedded videos can be extremely annoying. For some reasons, the site designers overlook or ignore the fact that people use tabs these days, and one might open a bunch of tabs before reviewing each one of the pages. When this is done, multiple pages start to play their content, creating a disturbing noise.

QuieNet is a Chrome extension that prevents videos from being automatically played. The extension hooks Ynet pages, and replaces media player with a stub. When the stub is clicked by the user, the original player is restored, and the video is played.

New in version 2.0
===================
* Video autoplay is cleanly prevented, without replacing the video player.
* Autoplay is prevented even if player is not the first one on the page.

Moshe Hanan (ID: 0000009b40c435b7) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 05/05/2015 The only way I get it to work is if while on a specific ynet page I disable and then enable the extension. The next time I open ynet it's back to the same old loud videos.
