# TwitchAdSolutions
This repo aims to provide multiple solutions for blocking Twitch ads.
## Recommendations
M3U8 proxies (or full proxies / VPNs) are the most reliable way of avoiding ads.

## Scripts
**There are better / easier to use methods in the above** `Recommendations`.
*Don't combine these scripts with other Twitch specific ad blockers.*
- notify-strip ([ublock](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/notify-strip/notify-strip-ublock-origin.js) / [userscript](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/notify-strip/notify-strip.user.js))
- Ad segments are replaced by low resolution stream segments.
- Notifies Twitch that ads were "watched" (reduces preroll ad frequency).
- *Audio sync issues? Infinite loading on midrolls? Try ([ublock](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/c3e1ee390ae684fe47d5159c689332d53e67094d/notify-strip/notify-strip-ublock-origin.js) / [userscript](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/c3e1ee390ae684fe47d5159c689332d53e67094d/notify-strip/notify-strip.user.js)) TODO: Fix these issues [#17](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/issues/17) [#24](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/issues/24).*
- notify-reload ([ublock](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/notify-reload/notify-reload-ublock-origin.js) / [userscript](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/notify-reload/notify-reload.user.js))
- Notifies that ads were watched, then reloads the player.
- Repeats this until no ads **(which may never happen ~ infinite reload)**.
- You should expect 3-10 player reloads (give or take). Once successful you shouldn't see preroll ads for a while on any stream (10+ minutes?).
- low-res ([ublock](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/low-res/low-res-ublock-origin.js) / [userscript](https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/raw/master/low-res/low-res.user.js))
- No ads.
- The stream is 480p for the duration of the stream.
## 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/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).
## Applying a script (userscript)
- Viewing one of the userscript files should prompt the given script to be added.
