Re: YouTube settings and videos....
And yes - at least i know. I updated all my AdBlock filters *and* downloaded UBlock, but I didn't see anywhere to toggle on an 'update automatically' on AdBlock, so I'll be checking on that more often to make sure they're updating.
Thanks again!

(Anonymous) 2020-04-05 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)Late here but just wanted to chime in and say if you have UBlock Origin (and make sure it's UBlock Origin, not just regular UBlock), then you don't need AdBlock too. UBlock Origin updates way more frequently, blocks a lot more stuff, and is just better overall. Having AdBlock too will just slow your browser down.

Re: YouTube settings and videos....
Still seeing the windows for other vids on YouTube. So irritating.

(Anonymous) 2020-04-06 06:09 am (UTC)(link)Can you link one that does it for you so I can check it out?
Also, what browser are you using, and what other addons do you have?
Re: YouTube settings and videos....
(Anonymous) 2020-04-06 06:27 am (UTC)(link)Just to be completely clear what you're talking about, it's the videos that pop up at 20:16 in this video, right? Sometimes it's at the very end.

I have something for you to try. Click on the UBlock Origin icon, and when the window pops up, click on the little icon that looks like a sound mixer...if you hover over it it should say "open the dashboard". On the page that it brings up, if it's not already selected, click "filter lists" at the top. Click on all the plus signs to expand all the different categories, and click the box in each one. The top one says "my filters", then "built-in", "ads", "privacy", etc.--you want to check all the boxes under each one. Ignore the ones under "regions, languages" at the end (unless you're in a country other than the US, but I don't think you are?)
Once you've checked all the boxes, click the "apply changes" button in the top right, and then the "update now" button near the top left if it's yellow (there's a good chance it won't be if you have auto updating enabled, but you might catch if briefly in between it updating itself). If it's grayed out you're good.
Now refresh a video you have that issue with and see if it still does it.
I use Firefox, but it should work in Chrome too. UBO doesn't enable all the filter lists by default, but if you turn all of them on it should hopefully fix your problem.
Re: YouTube settings and videos....
I'm on Firefox, the latest version, and i have UBlock Origin (heh, just now, used to have AdBlockPlus), and....um...XKitt and Avast, that's it.
After doing the UBlock (someone in comments recommended it), they still popped up. They also come up on Chrome (same computer), which has AdBlockPlus.
I swear it didn't used to happen, but maybe it's a new YouTube thing, who knows! Thanks!

And yes - same little boxes there as on other vids, totally obscuring some of the content. No big deal on some, really irritating on others.
Re: YouTube settings and videos....
(Anonymous) 2020-04-06 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)I did find a suggestion you can maybe try.
Go into the UBO dashboard, click on My Filters, copy and paste the lines below into the box, click Apply Changes, refresh the video and see if it does anything?

(Anonymous) 2020-04-07 08:18 am (UTC)(link)If not, I can keep trying to figure something out for you.
(I'm super stubborn when it comes to computer problems and don't like to just give up without solving them lol.)
Re: YouTube settings and videos....
