Happened to discover this a while ago.
If an ad starts playing in the main window that moves the livestream to a small window in the top right corner, do the following:
- Mute the main stream.
- Hover your mouse over to the tiny window and click the PiP button.
- Unmute the PiP stream
You can now continue to watch the livestream uninterrupted. Once the ad concludes, the PiP pop-up window automatically closes and the main stream continues.
I usually enlarge the PiP window and move it over the ad to cover it.
This is basically a manual method of what add-ons like Alternate Player for Twitch.tv do.
uBlock origin does not block twitch ads, in my experience
Same only solution I have found is a VPN called windscribe I pay for it as it’s my VPN of choice right now and increadblt cheap but anyways it has a browser ad on that you can turn on then put in a region (I forgot what one) because apparently twitch can not show ads there. It has worked for me I don’t watch much twitch anymore but when I do it seems to work.
I read somewhere that if you connect to Serbia, Twitch won’t show ads
I haven’t confirmed it because I very rarely watch Twitch either, and when I do it’s my friends’ channels and nothing with ads
Great tip! Thanks!
yea Yea not sure why I got downvotes but works for me. I had to Google the locations that don’t show ads it was how I got the idea.
Your comment kinda reads like an ad.
I do kinda see that lol. I just meant that there are free alternatives by free Vpns.
