Since it doesn't seem that disabling playlist auto-play to keep from jumping to the next video works anymore, is it possible to may come at it from a different direction.

I see there's "Switch to tab at the end of video" options which I haven't used myself, so I don't know if they're broken as well. Is it possible to detect the end of the video or near to the end of the video and have YTC stop the video before reaching the very end and jumping to the next video.... possibly using the same stop method that initially stops video auto-play from starting the video.

Just a thought to see if it's possible. Doesn't really need an interface button. A Preference setting would be adequate.

A few days ago, YouTube completely broke the Autoplay toggling feature. The button is marked up as Repeat Playlist now, which apparently has some other meaning, but is still referenced as Autoplay. I've implemented my own script to default Autoplay to off, using various methods I've found both through inspecting pages and taking examples. However, since YouTube's change, nothing seems to work. There might be some way nested deep in the hierarchy of code which might allow control, but as far as I've found, EVERY previously used method no longer works.

I'm thinking, since YouTube Center seems to detect state changes on the player, there might be a very hacky, buggy way to force the hand in the worst possible case. At this point, after all my own personal testing, I'd probably rather that over racking my brain any harder...

I'm not sure, but it seems the autoplay button functionality is gone. Instead, it's a 'Repeat Playlist' button now. If this is correct, and YouTube completely removed the old autoplay button, then it goes beyond absurd how these people manage things.

@YePpHa Can you please look into this issue? Regards
