Re: NVDA and "Skip Ad" button on youtube
Quentin Christensen
I just tried, and I can find the button, pretty much exactly the same ways as in Firefox. Note that YouTube has a few different ways of showing ads. The ones which have the "Skip ad" button, tend to be ones which play for five seconds or so first (with a count down timer where the Skip Ad button would be) before the Skip Ad button is shown. If you are quick off the mark, and try to find the button before this point, you may not be able to. The ads in this case are often a couple of minutes long. YouTube sometimes shows other ads which are 30 seconds or so, and for some of these ads, it doesn't offer a facility to skip the ad, but rather shows a message saying that your video will play (or resume) after the ad. In that case there is no Skip ad button either. Are you sure the ads you are seeing do in fact have skip ad buttons? I didn't try with NVDA 2019.1.1, but only NVDA 2019.2 rc1, I'm not sure if that makes a difference of the top of my head: https://www.nvaccess.org/post/nvda-2019-2rc1-released/ I was using Chrome Version 75.0.3770.142 (Official Build) (64-bit) I noticed when I just checked that it decided there was an update, but I don't think this build was that old.
