Doesn't work

I don't know what's wrong with it but it doesn't pause videos at all, just makes them go to the next one sooner. I even turned off all of my Youtube-related extensions, and still :(

I had the same issue. YouTube have done something to their site I think that's interfering with extensions that try to deal with playlist Autoplay (some older extensions for the old site stopped work also). To fix it, I did the following:

1) Click the Tampermonkey icon on your browser whilst on a YouTube page. Right-click the script's name. This should open up the script in a new page. You'll see the script's code on this page.

2) Simply look where it says " if (!paused && len - pos < 1.5) {" in both instances of the code and change it to 1.5. By default, it's set to 1.0 - changing it to about 1.5 seems to make it work again.

Let me know if this works. It did for me. Sometimes it may stop your video sooner (2 seconds before), but it's better than nothing. I use this extension because there's no other way to disable autoplay right now.

Yes, it worked. Thank you! However, any extensions dealing with Youtube still prevent it from working, unfortunately. (I'm currently using Youtube Classic + Youtube Plus)
