Grok’s Twitch AdBlaster

Description

Grok’s Twitch AdBlaster is a powerful userscript designed to block advertisements on Twitch.tv, including Pre-Roll, Mid-Roll, and banner ads. Crafted by fromaaage and powered by Grok, it ensures a seamless, ad-free streaming experience. The script targets ad containers, blob-based video ads, and ad-related scripts, keeping your focus on the content you love! 🚀

Note: The Pause/Play button is removed to block ad-related controls. To pause or resume a stream, use the right mouse button (RMB) on the video player. If ads appear, refresh the page with F5 to trigger the script again.

Features

  • Blocks Pre-Roll, Mid-Roll, and banner ads on Twitch.tv.
  • Removes blob-based video ads and ad overlays.
  • Lightweight and efficient, using MutationObservers for dynamic ad blocking.
  • Compatible with Violentmonkey and Tampermonkey.
  • Open-source under MIT license.

Installation

  1. Install a userscript manager: Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey for your browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc.).
  2. Install the script from GreasyFork or copy the code manually into your userscript manager.
  3. Ensure the script is enabled for https://www.twitch.tv/* and https://player.twitch.tv/*.

Usage

  • Visit any Twitch stream, and the script automatically blocks ads.
  • Pause/Resume: Right-click (RMB) on the video player to pause or resume, as the Pause/Play button is disabled to prevent ad triggers.
  • If ads appear: Press F5 to refresh the page, which usually resolves missed ad blocks.
  • Check the browser console (F12 > Console) for errors if issues persist.

Troubleshooting

  • Ads still showing? Refresh the page (F5). If the problem persists, disable other adblockers or tracking protection (e.g., Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection) for Twitch.
  • Stream not pausing? Use right-click (RMB) on the video player to control playback.
  • Errors in console? Report issues on GreasyFork or share console logs with fromaaage for quick fixes.

Notes

  • The script may block some legitimate elements (e.g., the Pause/Play button) to ensure robust ad blocking. This is a trade-off for an ad-free experience.
  • Twitch may update its ad system, so check GreasyFork for script updates.
  • For feature requests or bug reports, leave a comment on GreasyFork or contact fromaaage.
