If you ask me, the greatest invention of the new millennium has to be the \u201cSkip Intro\u201d button on Netflix. Don\u2019t get me wrong, it is not like I hate watching the intro to the shows I love, it is just that when I\u2019m binging through a series, I don\u2019t want to have to watch the intro again and again in between episodes. The same goes for recaps. They\u2019re useful if you watched the last episode more than a few days ago but if the last episode just finished, I don\u2019t need a recap. I know I\u2019m not alone in this frustration.<\/p>\n

OK, so there are skip buttons for these, but having to press them can be annoying, especially if you don\u2019t have a wireless mouse setup. Thankfully, it is now possible to set Skip Intro and Skip Recap to default<\/strong> so that it happens automatically every time you watch a show. You won\u2019t need to get up and tap a button, you\u2019ll be able to stay right where you are and the next episode will begin, intro and recap free. This is the best Netflix Chrome web browser extension.<\/p>\n

The Netflix Extended Chrome extension adds keyboard shortcuts and removes intros and recaps<\/h2>\n

Netflix Extended<\/a> is a very easy to use Google Chrome extension that will enhance your Netflix experience. Once you\u2019ve added the Extension to Chrome, you\u2019ll notice a green Netflix style \u201cN\u201d next to the other browser extension logos in the top right of Chrome. Whenever you click this N, Netflix will open.<\/p>\n

Once the extension is activated and Netflix is open, you\u2019ll see a green dot in the control bar at the bottom of the screen whenever you\u2019re playing a movie or show. Hovering the cursor over the green dot will tell you whether the extension is working properly.<\/p>\n

When you first activate Netflix Extended, it will already be set to automatically skip intros and recaps. If you\u2019re not happy with the default settings, however, and you want to change them up, you need to right-click on the green N icon.<\/strong> From there click on the Options<\/strong> button to open the Netflix Extended settings menu.<\/p>\n

As well as the Skip intros and Skip recaps options, you\u2019ll also be able to set Netflix to automatically mute the trailers<\/strong> it shows at the top of the screen on startup. Another key feature is the ability to block the next episode from starting automatically\u00a0if you think you might be binging a little too much.<\/p>\n

Netflix Extended also has a number of keyboard shortcuts<\/strong>, which you can tailor to your needs via the Options<\/strong> menu. Clicking on the Key bindings<\/strong> tab will open up the shortcut defaults and give you the option to change which keys will do things like play the next episode or exit Netflix altogether.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a big Netflix fan like me, I recommend checking out Netflix Extended now.<\/p>\n
