# 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](full-list.md#proxy-issues)).
- `TTV LOL` - [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ttv-lol/ofbbahodfeppoklmgjiokgfdgcndngjm) / [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ttv-lol/) / [code](https://github.com/TTV-LOL/extensions) - currently down
Alternatively:
- `Video Ad-Block, for Twitch` (fork) - [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/twitch-adblock/ljhnljhabgjcihjoihakgdiicdjncpkd) / [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/twitch-adblock/) / [code](https://github.com/cleanlock/VideoAdBlockForTwitch)
- `Alternate Player for Twitch.tv` - [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/alternate-player-for-twit/bhplkbgoehhhddaoolmakpocnenplmhf) / [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/twitch_5/)
- `Purple AdBlock` - [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/purple-adblock/lkgcfobnmghhbhgekffaadadhmeoindg) / [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/purpleadblock/) / [code](https://github.com/arthurbolsoni/Purple-adblock/)
- `ttv-ublock` - [chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ttv-ad-block/kndhknfnihidhcfnaacnndbolonbimai) / [firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ttv-adblock/) / [code](https://github.com/odensc/ttv-ublock) - *(possible periodic adblocker warning)*
- `vaft` - see below
[Read this for a full list and descriptions.](full-list.md)
## Scripts
**There are better / easier to use methods in the above recommendations.**
- vaft - [ublock](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/vaft/vaft-ublock-origin.js) / [userscript](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/vaft/vaft.user.js) / [ublock (permalink)](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/e80025cbd1eef78f3c609eaff8d5f934abcc9cf8/vaft/vaft-ublock-origin.js)
- `Video Ad-Block, for Twitch` (fork) as a script.
- *If the ad-free stream fails you'll see an adblocker warning. For more info see [#89](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/issues/89).*
*For the sake of security it's recommended to use a permalink when using uBlock Origin (permalinks do not auto update).*
## Applying a script (uBlock Origin)
- 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/vaft/vaft-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`.*
## Applying a script (userscript)
- Viewing one of the userscript files should prompt the given script to be added.
