Anticipation for YouTube and Twitch
Description from store

Anticipation hides the video time and progress bar on Youtube and Twitch VODs, along with the times of related videos on the page, so the user does not know how much time is left in a video.

Anticipation is useful when watching sports, esports, or other types of competitions when the amount of time left might give away the result of the sport, match, or competition.

Examples of sports and esports where Anticipation is useful: Tennis, Boxing, League of Legends, Super Smash Brothers, Counter-Strike, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, DOTA

The screenshots shown show Anticipation being used with LoL, CS:GO, and Super Smash Bros videos.

is there any chance to disable the estimated time of the video when browsing the video list? i remember long time ago, when i use anticipation, the time of each video on the list is hidden.. but recently when i activate again, the time on video list is not hidden

Easy to use and great feature. Allows me to watch sports games like badminton without knowing the overall length of the matches ( which would tell you who is the winner after the first match)

This app is incredible and has improved my YouTube experience a ton. No more spoilers for my favorite FGC fights. Thank you!

It is almost perfect, the only issue is that i have to remove the extension for it to go back to normal and then add it again later. Can you maybe add a on/off switch?

A little restricted that it has no customisation options or no option to temporarily disable, but it works.

It's amazing on YouTube, but it's almost useless on Twitch, as you can see the progress bar, meaning you can roughly guess how much time is remaining. Is this fixable?

Any chance we could configure it to match video titles? To automatically activate for videos of certain games.

Great plugin, but I can't seem to get the arrow keys to seek through video on Twitch anymore. Anyone else having this issue?

After the update, I love using this. It really helps out watching tournaments that I couldn't get around to watching live. Nice work!

I've used it for some time for VODS on Twitch and YouTube and it's been great. The only problem is that it's stopped working on Twitch for me.

nice extension and does what it claims but i will not use it, until there is some kind of "white list" for channels where it autoenables itself and disables on all others

Youtube recently updated it's player so that J, K, left and right keys shows the time remainding. This extension solves the problem! Amazing plugin.
