Summary
Use Mutecast to mute commercials and mute ads on Xfinity.com.
This extension is helpful if you find the commercials to be annoying while streaming content on Xfinity or comcast. This extension will mute those ads automatically and give you peace.
If you are watching a supported on-demand program or a supported live-tv channel, your Chrome tab will be muted when an ad begins playing. Note this may not work on all live tv channels, as some tv providers stream their own ads and we can't detect them. However, it does have pretty good success with on-demand content.
It DOES NOT work on all live channels as each station handles ads slightly differently. It SHOULD work on most on demand programs and SOME live tv.
We will work to improve the coverage across more live tv stations as time permits.
