Add a button to skip to the end of the muted chunk

This still isn't a feature?

Twitch vods are already able to detect copyright and will highlight and mute that segment. A toggle setting should be added so when on, it will automatically skip past that part and carry on where it is not muted.
The VOD player has little features to scrub through a stream apart from using arrow keys or clicking on the progress bar. If watching from a remote place like a sofa/bed this can be annoying to skip 2 minutes past a muted section if the vod is hours long

This feature suggestion should be reconsidered. The Music category has grown significantly in the last year and users are subscribing to DJs specifically to watch past streams, but a significant portion of past stream video is muted for copyright. A button to skip the muted audio or an option to automatically skip muted chunks would be useful.

This might seem like suggestion necromancy but as this is the most updated version of this suggestion, I'll add my votes here too.
As someone who tends to live in VOD land, this would be a superb feature.

Looks like this is a fairly popular idea but here goes: I watch a LOT of VOD's on twitch and I understand that muting copyrighted music on the VOD is here to stay. The problem is when a VOD has a LOT of muted sections, I have to manually click past the muted part. I feel that it would be amazing if a checkbox existed that "Automatically Skip past Muted Sections". That way I can watch every portion of the VOD that isn't muted.

I live in Australia and watch a lot of American streamers, hence why I basically live in vod land.
When people play copyrighted music it mutes for copyright strikes, which is extremely frustrating but understandable.
Most people don't want to watch muted stream, so I think it would be cool to have like a button or something you can press to skip forward to when the sound reinstates. Would make it much easier on vod viewers, who are a massive part of twitchs fanbase. This should be available both on mobile and on computer.

Add automated clickable timestamps at the end of muted portions of a streamers VOD, so that vodfriends like me have an easy time skipping the red/flagged part of the video.
Alternatives:
- a skip button
- display the time when the muted portion ends -

Pretty much what tittle say .
I often watch VoDs of the 1 streamer i actually follow , but there are at least a dozen times there are 3-5 min chunks muted cause of copyrighted songs that ware played during the stream .
It is kinda annoying to have to precisely drag the bar at the bottom till i figure out when exactly does the mute end ... especially since most his streams tend to be 10h+ long ...
So yeah having a simple future that lets you skip the currently muted part would be nice , if its not to complicated to implement i guess :)
