“block YouTube ads using a flaw in the Google Protocol Buffer”… until google fixes it, that is.

Still, super cool finding!

FrostyCaveman,

Woah, gold mine of info and ideas 👀 thanks for posting this

Easier solution: don’t buy an apple tv

drwankingstein,

the apple addiction is too strong

elgordio,

Alternative solution: pay for YouTube premium.

frshmt,

no u

ReversalHatchery,

You mean feed the investors of the company that makes tons of money by exploiting users private life? Or the one that runs false political propaganda in unskippable ads? (No idea about US elections, this is a much smaller country that I know).

Thanks but no.

You could try avoiding them altogether then.

ReversalHatchery,

If you’re not ignorant then you too know that’s not how it works. There’s too much content on youtube that you can’t find anywhere else, and entertainment is only a small part of it.

Or when I next complain about schools forcing kids to use google classroom, will you come and say that I should put my children to expensive private schools that don’t do it (yet)?

Too bad most other streaming boxes suck ass and are full of ads. Begging Android TV manufacturers to use a decent SoC for once.

Michael,

Shield TV.

dutchkimble,

Yup, best

I bought the high end nvidia shield last year and just out of warranty both the bluetooth and wifi chips died. It’s basically a brick now and I am probably never going to buy another. Even more stupid as I have an old tube-shield that is still running just fine from like 2018. I ended up installing libreelec.tv on an old pi 4 I had lying around. HDR, multi-language subtitles, using existing TV remote over HDMI-CEC, all work. That being said, I only use it for Jellyfin.

I hope anyone use using a shield does not have the same experience I did.

Did you try a warranty claim? Nvidia is pretty well-reputed for being flexible about that sort of thing. The warranty is 2 years in some countries, so it's not like a huge leap that they'd honor it for one bought last year.
