Mute Ad Chrome Extension For Jio Cinema & HotStar

Copyright (c) 2024 Anand

MuteAd is a Chrome extension that allows users to automatically mute the volume of a tab when ad shows up during the match, and then restore the volume after the ad is over.

How It Works

The extension works by observing changes in the DOM of the active tab. When a specified HTML element (e.g., a <div> with a particular class) appears in the webpage, the extension automatically mutes the tab's volume. Once the specified element disappears from the webpage, the extension restores the tab's volume after a 2-second delay.

Features

• Automatically mutes tab volume when a specified HTML element appears on the webpage.
• Restores tab volume after a 2-second delay when the specified HTML element disappears.

Usage
