I'm using ADguard Home and tried a bunch of custom filtering rules none of them worked so far.

Does anyone know if there's anything to help block this ads without the need to install another 3rd party tool?

Here is a list of what i was trying to block but nothing worked so far...

Using Adguard Home "query log" to try and block but or i block the entire stream or the ad's just play..


/amazon-adsystem/$important
/cdn.krxd.net/$important
/script.ioam.de/$important
/edge.quantserve.com/$important
/ddacn6pr5v0tl.cloudfront.net/$important
/d2v02itv0y9u9t.cloudfront.net/$important

/tv.pandavideo.com.br/$important
/pubsub-edge/$important
/.b-cdn.net/$important
||global.poe.live-video.net^$important
||sg.api.miwifi.com^$important


I tried to remove some headers with custom rules too but did not work.
Here is an example:

||ttvnw.net.^$header=Request URL:/.ts/


In twitch i found out that whenever i call

https:// xxxxxxxxxx.abs.hls.ttvnw.net/v1/segment/XXXXXXXXX.ts the AD shows.. so what i'm trying to block is to whenever an url is called (xxxxxxx.ts) adguard goes blocks it.


... but this did not worked too. Does someone ever tried to block ads using adguard home and some filter rules and succeed?

Cannot be blocked via DNS which AdGuard Home uses to block ads.

That's Sad.. tried a bunch of stuff sometimes they block the ads but what i wanted was to use only adguard no apps or 3rd party addons and for It to work on mobile without any mods as well, but It seems that i Will have to install something on my browser and phone so i can block those ads

Domain name ad blocking like AdGuard Home, AdGuard DNS, Pi-Hole, HOSTS file, etc. cannot block YouTube or Twitch ads. This is because the ads are served from the same domain(s) the video content is served from. So if you block the ads, you block the videos too.

Is there any other blocker/add-on that i could use in conjunction with adguard, like unbound to do this kind of thing or no... we can only block those with some 3rd party tool that goes in our browser?

No, again, domain name ad blocking can't block YouTube/Twitch/Facebook ads. You'd have to use a traditional ad blocker in a web browser to block them (for now at least). Like ad blocker browser extensions or the standalone AdGuard apps on desktop platforms and AdGuard for Android/iOS for mobile platforms.
