To refresh a page every 3 minutes, you only need to use this function:

setInterval(function(){ location.reload(); }, (3 * 60 * 1000));

The function uses miliseconds, so the 3 minutes are (3 * 60 * 1000) miliseconds. To change to 5 minutes, you only need to change the "3" by a "5".


To make the click, you first need to find the video control, and then only need to use this function:

document.querySelector("#example").click();

In this example, you search for a video control named with an id="example". You can search by id: #id_example, or by class: .class_example, or by tag: img, and you can mix multiple selectors: body .content #mainvideo img.playbutton. Every website is different, so nobody can give you more help without more information.

leoncastro, since the page is reloading you could use setTimeout. ;)
