Bypass YouTube's ad blocker detection, skip ads seamlessly, and notify if the script needs updating or stops working.
These are versions of this script where the code was updated. Show all versions.
Updated Features 1. Notification System: Real-time notifications for script actions, errors, and update availability. 2. Health Monitoring: Periodic checks to ensure the script is working correctly and skipping ads. 3. Automatic Update Alerts: Notifies users when a new version of the script is available for download. 4. Enhanced Error Handling: Alerts users if the script encounters issues or stops functioning. 5. Improved Logging: Detailed console logs for tracking skipped ads, removed elements, and errors. 6. Ad-Skipping Enhancements: Automatically mutes unskippable ads and removes overlays for smoother playback. 7. Resource Efficiency: Observers disconnect after prolonged inactivity to save browser resources.
What’s Improved in the Fixed Version? 1. Selective Targeting: • The script now checks if ytd-popup-container contains “ad blocker” related content before removing it. • This prevents interference with notifications and other valid popups. 2. Optimized DOM Observers: • The MutationObserver now processes only newly added nodes instead of blindly scanning the DOM. • This improves performance and reduces CPU usage. 3. Safer Ad Skipping: • Ads are skipped and removed only when matching specific ad selectors. • Ensures that no unrelated elements are affected. 4. Improved Resource Management: • Observers automatically disconnect after 5 minutes, reducing resource consumption for users who keep YouTube open for long sessions. 5. Better Logging: • Added clear console logs for each action, making it easier to debug and understand what the script is doing.
1. Overlay Removal: • Targets and removes YouTube’s anti-ad blocker overlay dynamically using DOM observation. 2. Ad Skipping: • Automatically skips video ads, closes overlay ads, and removes banner ads. 3. Dynamic Monitoring: • Observes DOM changes in real time to address new ads or overlays.
1. Randomized Delays: Introduces random timing for initialization to mimic human behavior. 2. Simplified and Stealthy: Reduces the frequency of console logs and minimizes the script’s footprint to avoid detection. 3. Debounced Actions: Limits DOM manipulations to improve performance and reduce chances of being flagged. 4. Avoids Over-Customization: Focuses only on critical ad-blocking features without excessive dependencies.
Key Changes: 1. Fetch Request Handling: • Improved URL extraction to handle Request objects passed to fetch. 2. Throttling: • Introduced throttle to limit how often removeAdElements runs, reducing strain on the browser. 3. MutationObserver Optimization: • Added a timeout to disconnect the observer after a reasonable duration, improving performance in long browsing sessions. 4. DOMContentLoaded Listener: • Ensures the listener runs only once using the { once: true } option. 5. Performance Logging: • Logs messages to the console for monitoring script actions and performance.
