Starting/First Ad Plays, But Other Ads Are Still Blocked #8

Closed Zzakal closed 3 years ago

Zzakal commented 3 years ago

As the title says. The first ad plays and can't be skipped, I tried refreshing and reopening the browser, doesn't stop the first ad when opening a stream. After the first ad plays, then everything works fine on that stream (following ads are blocked).

Notes: The ads are automatically muted, but not the stream. You often see the twitch adblock detected screen flash for a second then is replaced with an ad, only on the first/starting ad for that stream.

Yes, if you have a look at the changelog this can happen if a pre roll ad plays at the same time as the purple screen is shown after switching streams. Unfortunately there is currently no better way of getting rid of ads and this should only happen occasionally. Mid rolls however should be completely removed using the implemented ad block method. As soon as I find a better way of getting rid of ads and the purple screen I will of course update the extension.
