A reminder that if this doesn't work, they'll bake ads into the player like Hulu and Twitch. Can't block those, at least in a way that gets you back to the content seemlessly.

then we'll just do a sponsorblock type solution which skips over the ad

Only solutions I've seen stop the ad from appearing but not the 2 minute break it forces on you.
