Hi guys,

Youtube is using some new sort of ads in video's. While you are watching a video like https://gaming.youtube.com/watch?v=GEexxgNDHNI half way a commercial is interrupting the playback.

Its coming from XHR requests like these http://imgur.com/Ed7vPSM

How can we block those ?

Can you reproduce the issue using chrome for example ? or firefox ?
At what point (minute / seconds) does the ad appear ?

Hi Mapx

Thanks for the quick response. Ill try to reproduce this with firefox / chrome and report back.

The add appears around half way the video timer. So if a video is 16 minutes the add appears between 8 and 9 minutes. You do have to watch the while video from the start. Else the ad won't appear cause of the insufficient video length played.
