video-swap-new stopped working

[Tucsky]

the video-swap-new method stopped working since today. I haven't changed anything to my ublock settings (twitch.tv##+js(twitch-videoad) in filters , https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/master/video-swap-new/video-swap-new-ublock-origin.js in userResourcesLocation) but yeah looks like they patched it :/

Using Chrome, no other extensions

Stop using the uBlock Origin version, this version has known issues, use Tampermonkey + userscript instead. Don't forget to remove everything from uBlock Origin first.

Make sure you're on the latest version of the script, there was an update on the 3rd of November. I don't know in what situations uBlock Origin fetches the script but I assume it's only first load. So try reopening your browser or disable/enable the uBlock Origin extension.

Also note this in the README of this project:

The scripts may randomly stop being applied by uBlock Origin for unknown reasons (#200). It's recommended to use the userscript versions instead.

If reopening the browser doesn't fix it then try the userscript version. If the userscript version doesn't work then refer to this:

---

Check the console log for hookWorkerFetch which signifies that the script is being applied.

If it logs either of the following then the script is disabling itself due to conflicting twitch solutions:

• Twitch Worker is already hooked. Skipping (video-swap-new)
• Multiple twitch adblockers installed. Skipping Worker hook (video-swap-new)

If that is the case add a console.log statement here:

https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/blob/aa5dff2cb54aa2a3e68304387050f01a1af08b32/video-swap-new/video-swap-new.user.js#L46-L48

Such that the code changes to this:

if (workerString.includes(identifier) && workerString !== ourWorkerString) {
    console.log(workerString);
    return true;
}

Refresh the page to check the logged output. Validate that the logged output isn't some external twitch solution. If it is some external twitch solution then remove that external solution and try again. If the logged output is something unrelated to twitch then paste the logged output here and I can take a look at it.

Works fine here

@Moehrenquark just above your comment I listed several steps. Please follow the steps and provide me information based on the output. I can't fix "getting ads on twitch since sunday" with no additional information. Thanks.

It's working again @pixeltris @xxAlex7 (ublock origin way) sorry about that, not sure what happened... reopening the browser might have done it
