The nicovideo-next-video-canceler is a Chrome extension designed to improve the user experience on the Niconico video platform. This free add-on allows users to disable the automatic playback of the next video after the current one ends, while still enabling continuous playback for playlists. Additionally, it automatically exits full-screen mode when a video finishes, enhancing usability and control over the viewing experience.

This tool is particularly useful following recent changes to the Niconico platform, where videos automatically transition to the next one. Users are advised to keep the official player setting for automatic playback enabled for optimal usage of this extension. It balances the convenience of playlists with the control of individual video playback, making it a valuable addition for regular Niconico viewers.
