fading thumbnails out and converting them to grayscale no longer works

nijazm opened this issue · comments

They have done lots of changes of YouTube, everything is different. Today noticed grayscale and fading out of watched videos by your extension no longer works. Now only works that textual badge.

Could someone post a screenshot of how it looks for them? Like, did the Youtube interface change?

Will also note in case it's relevant. Here are the other plugins that i have in use for YouTube
ublock origin
disable-polymer-youtube
return youtube dislike
sponsorblock
unhook
user-agent switcher

I think youtube pushes updates at different times for different regions or something. I've seen videos where people are talking about recent changes to youtube and being confused because nothing was different for me. And then like a month later I suddenly get changes and being confused since no one is talking about them.

This issue also started quite suddenly. Everything was working fine earlier today. I have seen the changes in their interface for a few days(weeks?) now. Like the way the playlists look now.

Yes, looks like they do it per user. Maybe try if you will see changes when logged out vs. when logged in. About 2 months ago, first I noticed changes on youtube, and I told my bro, and he said 'where are changes? i do not see anything new'. I told him 'everything is new: font, buttons, menus, icons'. But only few days ago that grayscale and fading stopped working. You can test if everything is new for you by liking some video. When you like some video, you should notice some weird animation appearing on like button, like balloon, or explosion, or birthday or colorful fireworks around like button, just after pressing Like.

I sent a pull request fixing this issue.
I'm new to github so I hope I did it right.

For now, you can use this workaround:
Add this rule to your YouTube custom CSS in Stylus:

.youwatch-mark > yt-image > img {
    filter: opacity(30%) grayscale(90%);
}

Thanks everyone for chiming in! I just uploaded a new version which is already out for Firefox but still under review for Chrome (no idea how long this takes). Please let me know whether or not version 4.2.2 fixes this issue, thanks!

Can confirm 4.2.2 works. Thanks!

The listing for Chrome now shows 4.2.2 as well, let me know how it goes. 👍

Works great! You do gods work, man. Thank you.

Yup, works here!

Thanks y'all for confirming! I am hence closing this issue for now, please let me know (by replying here or by opening up a new issue) if this issue comes back or wasn't resolved after all. Thanks!
