Not sure where else to post this;

I have boinc set to pause on a couple exclusive apps (mostly games heh).. but I really would like to make it pause automatically when a youtube video is playing..

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but just incase.. has anyone figured out a way to do this?

If not I'll just keep pausing it manually.. Thanks.

Depending on what you do on it, you could always put your browser on the exclusive apps list.

The vid isn't necessarily playing in the browser, is it? A better way would be to discover the name of the application that plays the vid (it's likely not the browser) then add that app to the list of exclusive apps. When the vid is playing the app will appear in top on Linux or in Task Manager in Windows.
