Blocking Youtube ads by "sharing" video to our app #2994
Comments
For the 2nd point in Alternatives Considered: This is valid. It also has a free version. But I don't know if it's safe to use. Great ideas! |
How about just sending it to the browser? |
May you give the options of playing speed if possible? |
It won't provide picture-in-picture |
Это костыль. Перемотка 15 секунд, но куда подевались мои 10? Неизвестно в каком качестве видео запускается |
Instead of developing and maintaining a video player would it not be easier to just recommend an existing one like, NewPipe. |
I tried to determine what AG had done (blocked, modified, &c) with the YT link I shared, but didn't find any entries in the log. Not implemented? |
Yes at this stage this info not implemented in the filtering log. |
Planned? ETA? |
Tentatively by version 4.0. |
@TPS Hi! I guess the YouTube traffic can't be shown in the Filtering log because the AdGuard app makes requests to YouTube. The AdGuard traffic is not taken into account by ourselves. |
That's a problem, isn't it? How does 1 debug, &c? |
No, that's not a problem |
@TPS blocking YT ads in this case is not achieved via declarative rules, rather by using YT Iframe API with additional parameters to disable ads. Debugging it is only possible if you're an AdGuard dev, you need access to the code to change anything. |
Problem Description
There is no normal solution to adblocking on Youtube besides watching it in the browser (or rooting your device). Well, and besides purchasing YT Premium, but it's not available in a lot of countries.
Proposed Solution
Allow watching Youtube videos right inside AdGuard (without ads, obviously).
Please note, that we cannot and do not want to replace the YT app. There are some awesome solutions for that already (see NewPipe).
