[@Rabbit101Whazup]

@@jonask9439 I cant remember how I got it to stick in DNS but I did but later realized it was only minimal at best and changed it back to my ISP DNS. I have moved onto a Raspberry Pi DNS Ad blocker (Blocks Ads for every device on your network) I added to many block lists to that at first like 3 million and blocked many of my websites I frequent so I took a bunch out its better but not a perfect solution either.

Guys, recently I made another video about SMART TVs. Let's go to another level of ADS blocking with even SMARTer TV >> kzbin.info/www/bejne/opDNaaCuh913qrc

[@ShadowofTheAlmighty]

I have a Vizio Smartcast E55-E1 I tried both sets of DNS servers, the first one made no change. The second one caused serious lag, intermittent connection and still showed ads...😫 I had high hopes!

[@hardwin82]

@@ShadowofTheAlmighty hmm noticed that this method is not helping for apps like YT, NETFLIX, etc. due to HOW those ads are handle by the service [basiccly ads and content we want to watch is coming from the same location/address and that's causing DNS like adguard to fail. What app are U using to watch content? The good news is you have a TV with an android system and that's giving a HUGE advantage. You could install apps like VANCED or a different launcher for your SMART TV. Unfortunately, I do not have TV with the android system to test this out.

[@ShadowofTheAlmighty]

@@hardwin82 im using Adlock. It's $20/yr for 5 devices, but it's for smartphone, tabs, and laptops.... haven't figured out the tv app yet

[@hardwin82]

@@ShadowofTheAlmighty very interesting. thx for your comment. I just read many positive comments about this app and few reviews. Looks like it is a VPN with the adblocking feature. So in theory works exactly the same as Adguard DNS [but maybe it's better]. The price is fair as well. But everyone used that to block ads while browsing internet, the same job can do uBlock Origin. Are U using this maybe with your TV? share your experience with us about this app. Thx!

[@ShadowofTheAlmighty]

@@hardwin82 one drawback I've began noticing while using the app - it tends to lose connection pretty frequently and it will clear cache on some apps, making you have to sign in to open the app, occasionally...😒

Then the game continues and no ads. Cheers mate! I’m not big on commenting but you bloody deserve the positive feedback!

[@artistamisto]

Thumbs up on an informative video. I despise ads like many others but I have no where near the time wasted like the sample shown on your video. 6 ads, 2 minutes is madness. The ads I get are about 14 seconds and then it shows a button to cancel the next one and resume the show. But they pop up out of nowhere cutting off the show. Even though the show continues right away it's like listening to a song skip and interrupts my chain of thought. On one youtube video they kept popping up every 3 minutes at one point! This DNS# didn't work for me on all channels, not KZbin and Tubi, but it seemed to work on Exite, the 80s music video channel. I have a new Samsung smartTV which I don't call smart because I want easy watching TV, not all the hassles and gadgets. Anyway a bigger problem I have is I can't connect my computer on this TV to use as a monitor. I want to use the big screen for internet surfing/streaming, emails etc. It doesn't see my HDMI to VGA adapter like my other 2018 smart TV did. Do you have a video that helps for this? I tried HDMI 1 and 2 and the icon on the TV displays an "unknown" message on both.

[@hardwin82]

thx man. This whole situation with ads is getting ridiculous. I'm afraid we will end up like heroes from the TV series *Black Mirror* episode * Fifteen Million Merits*. I am happy that this method works with some of the apps that you are using. Unfortunately, it's not working in some cases like YT. I made this video more than a year ago and now things are different. A multilevel approach is necessary. That's why I made 3 different videos about this/3 methods. But those companies are not stupid, there is a new method they will eventually find a way to block it. But the general rule is this: never use their app. As soon as you use their official app that's it. For YT there was something called *youtubevanced* but it's not working anymore, for Spotify I also had something but again it's not working anymore. So I am always trying to find an alternative way to connect to that content. What I am doing now I represented here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/opDNaaCuh913qrc [from 22 min]. Basically, you need to use COMPUTER to watch TV content. The web browser like firefox or Brave with uBlock Origin and a good site with a huge library of movies, tv-series, and shows. That problem with HDMI .... I hate adapters, they will always cause problems. You might need an adapter like this here www.amazon.com/Monoprice-6191-VGA-HDMI-Converter/dp/B008CR0S50 [but no guaranties]. Ideally, you need a graphic card with HDMI output. That is 100% success. What motherboard do you have?

[@artistamisto]

​@@hardwin82 Thank you for reply. I solved the adapter problem by contacting the company on Amazon and the lady was very helpful and credited me so I reordered that same brand and the newer one worked. So now it's back to blocking ads on smartTV. You are right though I get zero ads on YT with adblocker on my desktop computer and I would have to watch from that to be ad free. Disappointed that I can't load adblocker on the smartTV as easily!

The KZbin app currently, is a fucking MESS with ads. I watch longer videos to try and nap during the day after work. During the first 25 mins, I was hit with 6 different ad rolls. That's INSANE. It's noticeably increased on the TV app than other sources such as your PC or phone/tablet. I turned off what I was watching and switched to an age restricted video, as those don't have ads. It's ridiculous. KZbin ads are extremely intrusive and they wonder why people use ad blockers. We all know Google are trying to spam ads so much that you pull out your wallet for premium.

What other relevant information is required to block ads? I changed the DNS on my Samsung settings but nothing happened. Is there a truly systematic way of getting control over this without patch-work fixes? 1. I see lower down the suggested DNS keeps evolving. 1.1 How can I track that and keep it up to date? 1.2 Why doesn't any randomly selected DNS work? Why only a specified one? 1.3 What does the suggested DNS link to? 2. The TV uses my KZbin Account which also links to my Samsung phone and google chrome. 2.1 I have also switched off ads in this setting but it also did nothing. 3. Ad Blocking software 3.1 Do you recommend its use? What are pros and cons? Thanks for your information.

[@hardwin82]

man, this subject is getting more and more complicated. Technology is changing so fast, old methods stop working and new methods appear every single day. The truth is...this requires a multilayer approach. There is no ONE method out there working in 100%. At the end of the day is all about what service are U using. Is it Netflix, is it Roku, is it just YT ... and from now on you need to focus on that ONE thing, how to block ads on this one service. Those big companies are not stupid, they see a "new method how to stop ads" and they are on it. That's why people are so frustrated why it's not working, this is fake, etc. But the good news is...whatever the problem in the IT world is there is a SOLUTION, maybe not NOW but will be tomorrow. When I was doing my first video about blocking ads that method was working like a charm. It still works but not like it was before. That's why I made another video and another only about HOW TO BLOCK ADS. All those methods I represented are great but again...they will not cover everything. What I am doing every day? 1-I am not using apps built in a SMART TV. 2-I have a small computer connected to the TV via HDMI cable and I watch all the content from there. 3-that computer has a DNS server+firewall+brave browser+ads blocking plugins. 4.I found an online service that I am happy with [content, quality, etc] and I watch content from there. I am doing everything to avoid using apps like Netflix, YT etc. YOU need to have control of them, not the opposite. have a look here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/opDNaaCuh913qrc from 22m. Basically, this is what I am doing. hopes this will help. thx for the comment mate and if U want to talk more I'm here. cheers!

[@slowmooving]

doesnt work on my Samsung either.

[@GAMEOVER-xf5nq]

Love from india

[@calholli]

My Tv doesn't have a DNS option (it's a built in Roku). So I tried to do this DNS change on my router and once I press apply, it resets my netgear modem/router combo and then it goes back to an auto populated DNS (primary and secondary). Is my ISP not allowing me to change it?? So then I tried again and made your DNS the primary and google's 1111 the secondary and 0000 for the third, and now it says "invalid tertairy dns". So I'm not sure it won't let me change the DNS, I'm assuming my ISP has it locked I guess; because even when it looks like it's going to change, it just resets back to some auto populated numbers. Edit: I tried it again, without the 0000 and now it works. And the Roku on the TV has NO ADS now. lol.. You're a GOD. it worked

[@aminatgbadamosi6383]

Doesn’t work on my Samsung tv. Did you do something special? I just did the settings and still got ads on KZbin

[@IraQNid]

This won't automatically block all advertisements. Only the ones that are inserted by the service providers. For ads that are baked in for product sponsorship like on Linus Tech Tips, you skip those by pausing the video, scrubbing past their ads, pressing play where you think they are done talking about some razor or whatever else. While scrubbing with either the remote control, your finger, mouse, you will still see a thumbnail version of the ad in the playback status bar. A nice way to seek the parts you are looking for or looking to avoid. But the audio is muted during this type of seek operation. The other option is to avoid using the LAN port on the TV itself. Instead, use the HDMI input to connect to your computer. Then, using Firefox, you go into settings to add "AD Block +" to that browser. It will get rid of all the ads from KZbin that are not baked in. You also have the benefit of not revealing what you're watching to the company that made your "smart" TV. So no more spyware.

[@Darwin06QL]

Thank you a lot man I was really getting pissed. I stopped spending time on KZbin because of this
