URL(s) where the issue occurs

http://www.nowvideo.li/video/d43eb73c52ce8

Describe the issue

The issue concerns the page with same url that appears clicking on "Continue to the video" link.
Few seconds later the page is rendered, the player's buttons are obstructed by an invisible banner which seems to cover the entire body of the page, so that clicking on whatever part of the page opens up a popup on a new tab.

Screenshot(s)

The mouse pointer does not change hovering over the player's buttons

Notes

I reported the issue to the Esy List forum: https://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=31384
They say the popup is closed by adblock plus.
I tried to inspect the page but could not find any code related to the issue, only two popups by ad.vkoad.com blocked by NoScript.
I have NoScript allowing only nowvideo.li and blocking all other scripts.
NoScript detects the following urls attached to the invisible popup:

cdn.adstract.com/adstract/tags/xdirect/xdirect.html?
cdn.adstract.com/adstract/tags/xdirect/ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash
cdn.adstract.com/adstract/tags/xdirect/.adk2x.com/imp

Please, use the logger to diagnose filter issues -- I put it there so that everybody can investigate these issues, and so that not all the investigation work is dumped onto filter list maintainers. Your link to EasyList topic does not work.

My quick findings (I will let you find the details) using the logger: sometimes the popup is blocked, sometimes it is not blocked because there is no filter for these. For example:

What the logger says: no popup filters for best-bar.net, zk1.novembar-lax.com, en.quizquiz.me, and no blanket-blocking of popup for nowvideo.li. Hence not all popups are blocked, even with ABP (which I confirmed). If you provide them the evidence, they won't dismiss your issue.

Also, you can also block all popups unconditionally for a given site using the per-site switches -- probably a good idea on that sort of site:

Again, that is the exact reason I put the per-site no-popup switch, so that there is no need for time-consuming filter-investigating-crafting. That is my suggestion concerning this issue.

I corrected the url to the Easy List forum.
Below is a screenshot ot the logger, taken when clicking on the hidden popup (20:33:13).
As you said there are no filter rules for console-domain.link and for zf1.zeroredirect9.com, and no blanket-blocking of popup for nowvideo.li which I suppose causes the issue.

Using the per-site no-popup switch the invisible popup persists. It is the about:blank popup.
I will provide the link of this issue to the Easy List forum.
Many thanks
