This repo aims to provide multiple solutions for blocking Twitch ads.
Don't combine Twitch specific ad blockers.
Proxies are the most reliable way of avoiding ads (buffering / downtime info).
Alternatively:
Alternate Player for Twitch.tv- chrome / firefoxPurple AdBlock- chrome / firefox / codeAdGuard Extra- chrome / firefox / userscriptvideo-swap-new- see below
Read this for a full list and descriptions.
Also see this list maintained by @zGato.
There are better / easier to use methods in the above recommendations.
- video-swap-new - userscript / ublock / ublock (permalink)
- Uses a lower resolution stream during ads.
- vaft - userscript / ublock / ublock (permalink)
- The same as
video-swap-newbut attempts to get a clean stream faster (may suffer from more freezing / playback issues).
- The same as
- Navigate to the uBlock Origin Dashboard (the extension options)
- Under the
My filterstab addtwitch.tv##+js(twitch-videoad). - Under the
Settingstab, enableI am an advanced user, then click the cog that appears. Modify the value ofuserResourcesLocationfromunsetto the full url of the solution you wish to use (if a url is already in use, add a space after the existing url). e.g.userResourcesLocation https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/master/video-swap-new/video-swap-new-ublock-origin.js - To ensure uBlock Origin loads the script I recommend that you disable/enable the uBlock Origin extension (or restart your browser).
To stop using a script remove the filter and make the url unset.
For the sake of security it's recommended to use a permalink when using uBlock Origin (permalinks do not auto update).
The scripts may randomly stop being applied by uBlock Origin for unknown reasons (#200). It's recommended to use the userscript versions instead.
- Viewing one of the userscript files should prompt the given script to be added (assuming you have a userscript manager).
