Another irritating feature on YouTube Videos is they autoplay immediately after the tab is opened, but actually you may not be watching it sometimes.

This extension actually helps in the right way by stopping the videos from auto playing and it only plays when you click on the play button.

Smartpause for YouTube:

While switching between the various tabs, in the new era of multi-tasking, it would be great to have a feature like automatic pause. Even YouTube doesn’t concentrate on giving us this kind of a feature, a developer has provided us with an extension for Chrome browser which serves us in the best way.

Enable this extension and you will no need to suffer while switching between the various tabs, as your YouTube video will be paused when you are on the other tab and played only when you switch back to that tab.
