    Wow this looks great, didn't even know it was possible to block ads on smart TV's? I suppose this will also work on services like YouTube and Tubi, has anyone checked?

    I just installed it and it specifically states it can't block ads on YouTube and in other videos.

    I installed about a week ago on two TV's and a Amazon Fire Stick 4K, and as roger m says it cannot block ads in YouTube. The only complaint I have is sometimes I have to manually restart protection.

    wally - pity - no forum any longer, wtf.
    as github has no tv section you should read on reddit
    https://www.reddit.com/r/Adguard/
    there exist several questions for tv

    I doubt it will, as per my first post it says - it can't block ads on YouTube and in other videos.

    OK I see, so if it can't block video ads, I don't see the point of it.
