Still seeing ads on videos from Dailymotion.com

Post by Nils »

I see ads on dailymotion videos, directly on the website, or when the video is embedded too.

I can do right click/ block this ad but when I refresh, the ad is still there.

I've seen comments on Discus saying they have this problem, this comments had a lot of upvotes so I'm not the only one in that situation.

I guess someone will need to use the network inspector to try to figure out a good URL pattern to use; I'm not able to do that at the moment, though.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

I'm also seeing ads on dailymotion. Even after I updated easylist. Any workaround?

So ABP lets dailymotion pre-roll video ads through?

The thread you linked didn't help. I am able to view dailymotion vids; I am unable to block the video ad.

Here's a dumb question. Do I have to cut and paste each filter individually into the add custom filter box, or can I just cut and paste 'em all at the same time?

Thanks.

click "select all", copy them, paste in the custom filters section. The result will be 5 filters / 5 different rows

Thanks. I was always clicking "add filter" first. Got it figured out now.

I'm still seeing ads even after adding those filters. Also, the screen size on the video is all small now.

Example: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3rjvn ... hicken_fun

Any other filters I might try?

Thanks.

Still no fix for this? I'm so mad that it happens precisely on a website that embed dailymotion video, and that I absolutely don't want to give money to...
