TwitchAdSolutions

This repo aims to provide multiple solutions for blocking Twitch ads.

Don't combine Twitch specific ad blockers.

Recommendations

Proxies are the most reliable way of avoiding ads (buffering / downtime info).

Alternatively:

There are better / easier to use methods in the above Recommendations.

notify-strip - ublock / userscript / ublock (permalink)
- Ad segments are replaced by low resolution stream segments.
- Notifies Twitch that ads were "watched" (reduces preroll ad frequency).
- You may experience a small jump in time when the regular stream kicks in.
notify-swap - ublock / userscript / ublock (permalink)
- The same as notify-strip with a slightly different method to fix freezing issues (especially on Firefox).
- The ad/non-ad transition takes slightly longer than notify-strip.
vaft - ublock / userscript / ublock (permalink)
- Video Ad-Block, for Twitch (fork) as a script.
low-res - ublock / userscript / ublock (permalink)
- No ads.
- The stream is 480p for the duration of the stream.

For the sake of security it's recommended to use a permalink when using uBlock Origin (these links do not auto update).

Navigate to the uBlock Origin Dashboard (the extension options)
Under the My filters tab add twitch.tv##+js(twitch-videoad).
Under the Settings tab, enable I am an advanced user, then click the cog that appears. Modify the value of userResourcesLocation from unset to 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://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/notify-strip/notify-strip-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.
