    This list can be used on all the other common ad blockers too, but they have their own settings page that I won't get into detail about. If you don't know about uBlock Origin, you might consider switching to it as it's GPL-licensed and is faster and lighter on resources than other ad blockers.

  • The "purple screen" now appears for 30s every 10 minutes, up from 15s every 15 minutes.

    if you use TTV AdEraser, it actually loads the stream you are watching multiple times, and then if the purple screen pops up it replaces the player with one of the duplicates. so essentially you never see the purple screen.

    The other issue that you described with some prerolls/ purple screens coming through is an issue that I have addressed in my last changelog (https://github.com/LeonHeidelbach/ttv_adEraser#changelog). The thing is that when you go to a stream and an ad happens to run at the beginning while also the purple screen is shown, you might see either one for a couple of seconds. This happens due to the fact that the current method of getting rid of the purple screen/ads basically just switches the original player and the embedded one back and forth as soon as the purple screen is visible/disappears. This however, should only happen occasionally. Unfortunately as of now there is no better way of getting rid of ads/purple screens since twitch basically killed the embedded player with their annoying message :(

Unfortunately as of now there is no better way of getting rid of ads/purple screens since twitch basically killed the embedded player with their annoying message :(. In general I update the extension very frequently, e.g. if people find issues or have new feature requests. Keep in mind though that I am currently working on this project on my own in my spare time. As soon as there is a better way of getting rid of ads/purple screens I'll be sure to update my extension. Check out my GitHub to post issues and get the most up to date version of the extension from the dev_build branch. As of now the dev_build branch version is the same as the Chrome Web Store version.
