🎬 EasyTube — All-in-One YouTube Enhancement

Skip ads. Block sponsors. Force HD. Download videos.
One floating panel. Zero bloat. Works right now.

✨Features

Feature	Details
🚫 Ad Skipper	Auto-skips skippable & unskippable ads, closes banners/overlays, mutes non-skippable ads
⏭ SponsorBlock	Skips or mutes 9 segment types: `sponsor`, `selfpromo`, `interaction`, `intro`, `outro`, `preview`, `music_offtopic`, `filler`, `exclusive_access`
🎥 Auto HD Quality	Forces highest available quality (4K → 1440p → 1080p) on every video load
⬇ HD Downloader	One-click download of the current video in HD/4K
🛡 Adblock Bypass	Dismisses YouTube's adblock enforcement popup automatically
📊 Stats Panel	Floating draggable panel shows live ad skip count + sponsor segment count

🖥 How It Works

EasyTube adds a small floating YouTube-logo toggle button to the bottom-right of every YouTube page.
Click it to open the control panel, where you can individually toggle each feature ON/OFF:

Ad Skip — enable/disable ad skipping
SponsorBlock — enable/disable sponsor segment skipping
Quality — enable/disable auto-HD forcing

The panel also shows the current video title, video ID, and a Download HD button.

⚙️ Technical Details

Ad skipping method — adapted from tientq64/Auto-Skip-YouTube-Ads (MIT, 57k+ installs). Clicks skip buttons + seeks to end + mutes unskippable ads + closes overlays.
SponsorBlock — uses the SponsorBlock public API (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Implements SHA-256 hash-prefix privacy endpoint so your exact videoID is never sent to the server.
Quality control — hooks into YouTube's native movie_player API (getAvailableQualityLevels, setPlaybackQuality).
Download — opens the current video in a 3rd-party converter service.
SPA navigation — MutationObserver + yt-navigate-finish event keep everything in sync as YouTube navigates without full page reloads.

📦 Compatibility

Manager	Status
Tampermonkey (Chrome/Firefox/Edge)	✅ Fully tested
Violentmonkey (Chrome/Firefox)	✅ Fully tested
Greasemonkey (Firefox)	⚠️ Not tested

🔒 Privacy

No data collection. EasyTube never sends any user data anywhere.
SponsorBlock requests use SHA-256 hash prefix — only the first 4 hex characters of the video ID hash are sent, so the server cannot reconstruct the exact video you're watching.
No external analytics, no telemetry, no tracking scripts.
