    Version 1.8

    Released May 11, 2026 - 662.58 KB
    Works with firefox 58.0 and later
    Version 1.8 changelog:
    - Eliminated the brief audio blip between back-to-back ads: unmute is now deferred by 2 seconds after the duration timer expires, and a new ad arriving in that window cancels the unmute so the tab stays muted seamlessly.
    - True game-resume is unaffected: if Hotstar requests an actual cricket video chunk during the settle window, the tab unmutes immediately.
