appletv-autoplay
Tired of the "are you still watching" prompt?
Apple TV Autoplay connects to your Apple TV as a remote. It then watches the video status (playing vs paused) and will send a click when the video has been paused. So far I've confirmed this works with Netflix and Hulu.
Usage
Install with npm:
npm install -g appletv-autoplay
Then run appletv-autoplay
:
> appletv-autoplay

Tips
I've noticed that you'll lose connection to the Apple TV over long periods of time so you should run appletv-autoplay using a process manager like pm2. You can pass the UUID of the Apple TV to appletv-autoplay to bypass the Apple TV selection and connect to that Apple TV directly.
