sciencechannel.com - adaptive video player

Post by artdigy »

Hello. Adblock Plus will not work on this site.

Code: Select all

sciencechannel.com
If it is enabled, it gives some NS error and the player refuses to function. I have limited down the ad displaying script to around this area

Code: Select all

<div tabindex="1" class="plyr plyr--video plyr--fullscreen-enabled plyr--ready ssdai__ad-not-playing plyr--playing plyr--hide-controls" style="display: block;">
But the problem is that this is the parent element. If any aspect of it is blocked, the player stops functioning. I can't seem to find a valid location on where the ads play.

I'm playing How It's Made, because it was an interesting show from my childhood that I like. The problem is that I don't have any premium membership, and it tries to display EIGHT ads at a time, which is awful.

Hi artdigy!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Can you let us know which filter lists you are using with Adblock Plus? We will run a few test on our end and get back to you with a resolution.

Thanks
