Filter not filtering one word in the list

[Jrad337]

I just encountered a problem that I can't resolve. The filter stopped filtering one four letter word in the word list. I deleted the extension and reinstalled it I tried resetting the settings to default and nothing will fix it.

The screenshot is of what the filter did. It got rid of the last two letters of the word but it did not mute the audio. And it is only that word. The filter works great with all the other words.

The extension is on Chrome. I am running Windows 11 on an HP Desktop PC.

Hi @Jrad337, sorry it has stopped working for you. Which service is that that has the issue?

The service I'm using is Netflix But once again it is only the one word for some reason. It doesn't matter what derivative of the word comes up it will never filter s h i t. When I first saw the problem it was a derivative (Bullshit]. So I added that word completely but then I realized the word s h i t was a partial match so it should have filtered it and then I saw it it never filters that word it only filters the last to letters [it] in the captions and doesn't mute the audio. Thanks so much for responding. You have the best help available for any app I've ever seen.

Update. Just watched a different show that has that word and it muted the audio and it censored h i t instead of just i t. The show that it is not working on is "Suits" the show that it does work on is "Away"

Thanks for those extra details @Jrad337, and for the compliment. I try to be as helpful as I can be.

Anyway, in this particular case, unfortunately it looks like Netflix (or whoever provided the captions) pre-filtered the text. If you watch it without APF running at all it will still show "HOLY SH--". If this is a common occurrence for this show, or if you'd like the filter to catch this one specific instance, I'd recommend adding a new word to the filter:

• Word: sh--
  • Match Method: Exact
  • Match repeated characters: Unchecked
  • Match separators: Unchecked

This worked for me at ~28:25 in Suits S03E14.
