Many thanks! :-) You are welcome. Just figured this out — knew you could copy the URL and go to the dialog. Was thinking of scripting it — but drag and drop works just as well if not better. Guess the script could be invoked from a hotkey — so maybe will still play. Oh, I generally don’t see ads on live streams but it even works there. That could come in handy for my media machine I use with a remote. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity.

That's one of the folders on my network for electronics related things, obviously. I tend to preserve videos I find useful/otherwise interesting. One can never be sure they'll always be available on youtube. And besides, there's nothing like having your own local copy of something. Probably more ways to do it, but, I never really spent much time looking into how to screw over youtube advertising. And, well, I use vlc to do more than just watch videos - It's also what I use to display the video feed from my digital microscope onto a much bigger screen. Makes soldering easier in some cases. Gremlin is just as lost. Which really is fine but fun to note given how arrogant you two are. I'm not lost, but, I can see why you might think I'm arrogant - despite the fact i'm actually nothing of the sort. I admit, I do come across that way from time to time - but it's NOT intentional. -- Useless Invention: Caffeine-free Diet Coke. |

Browser independent. ----- nopam: ----- translated: doesn't exist. ----- nor does it even work particularly well No, it works great. In fact I have not found a single YouTube video it fails for -- even live ones. because it requires manually dragging the url to another app. Yes it does -- though I have talked about possibly making a System Service and adding a hot key to it. If I did that I would want to make sure the web video was paused first -- and sometimes I remember to do that and sometimes I do not. Not sure if I could check that. I could, I suppose, either close or quiet the tab. If I did this it would work only in Safari but that is OK -- it is what I mostly used. in fact, simply reloading the youtube page will usually cause the ad to be skipped, without vlc involved at all. You might bypass a startup ad, but not the ones that run in the middle of videos. Or maybe you can reload again and again. For me that is not a good solution -- I often am crafting and do not want to reload repeatedly during a 15-20 minute video. For other videos I download and just watch on VLC or, more recently, Apple TV. Of course pretty much any video viewer would work there. actual ad blocking for youtube can be done using a content blocker and/or selective dns blocking, but those are concepts well beyond your abilities. If you know of a good ad blocker that does that, especially in Safari, I would love to see it! You are right that I have not found one and, given the nature of Safari and its current plugins, it is beyond my ability. So happy to see you are right TWICE in one post... even if what you are right about are, frankly, simple concepts. Hint: it does use common third party software. 'it' means a single solution, which means you're already behind the curve, and 'common third party software' is meaningless. you ain't fooling anyone. Unlike you, I do not seek to fool anyone. I just have fun watching you and Gremlin dig holes with your arrogance and ignorance. thereby admitting what everyone knew all along, that you're trolling. I do not deny I enjoy giving you and Gremlin rope to hang yourselves. You two have an arrogance I find amusing. But here is the thing -- if you merely do not respond with arrogance and other nonsense the "trap" I set for you fails. I do want to be clear: just because you are ignorant about SOME things does not mean you are about ALL things. But you clearly were ignorant here.. the only person displaying ignorance is you, who is oblivious to how to effectively block youtube ads, without requiring separate apps. The irony of this is you have failed to show a way that is likely to block all ads, especially in Safari. But, hey, it is your arrogance we are seeing here. You and Gremlin are a hoot! just as you were ignorant when you cried about my noting how Apple is making it harder to run Windows on Macs as they move away from Intel. more of your fabricated garbage and yet another thing you do not understand. LOL! You really do not remember the conversation we had from a couple days ago. I find that funny. Snit: ----- Thanks for finally getting this. Hence why it makes sense to note Apple does not care enough about Windows to stay on Intel. ----- nospam: ----- idiot savant, Apple has intel virtualization technology present on their silicon. They are not distancing themselves away from Intel. ----- But, of course, Apple says they are NOT providing virtualization to allow for running Windows on future Silicon Macs. And of course Apple has been VERY open about moving to Silicon and distancing themselves from Intel. I posted other sources, including directly from Apple, but here is Apple Insider talking about it: https://appleinsider.com/articles/20...-apple-silicon ----- Mac users who rely on Windows virtualization software might be left in the lurch when Apple transitions to its own custom ARM processors later this year, as the company's Rosetta Intel-to-ARM translator does not support virtual machine apps. Apple outlined Rosetta's — technically Rosetta 2's — limitations in a developer document posted to its website this week, noting that while it can translate "most" Intel-based apps, it is unable to do the same for virtual machine apps that handle x86_64 computer platforms. Popular x86_64 virtualization apps include products from Parallels and VMWare that virtualize Windows environments. ----- It was just ANOTHER area where you really had NO clue what you were talking about but got really arrogant when you posted about how virtualization and emulation are not the same, as if someone had said otherwise. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity.

One of the things I like about macOS is drag and drop USUALLY works as you would expect... so I *should* have tried this before. Was not as big of a deal though until YouTube started tossing so many damned ads as they have recently. Anyways, I fire up vlc, hit ctrl-n (file/open network stream) paste youtube url. Yeah... as I show in the video that works, too... just not as fast. If your DE does not support it, though, you do what you have to do. As I said I was thinking of scripting it. Still might just to have a hot key. It works for some others too. I'm sure youtube is aware of the fact vlc is stripping out the advertising... I would assume so. For longer videos I download them and watch that that way... usually not with what I show in the video but with youtubepp. People have to be careful about that though because it promotes pushing malware.

Not mine. https://youtu.be/fbD3nkR1OWk You say you knew at least some of that. Great. I am happy for you. It was more fun when you were making claims about x86 being virtualized in Apple Silicon so you could run x86 Windows on those to-be-released Macs. LOL! .... Still not as fun as this exchange you ran from: Snit: ----- The point I made was Apple is moving away from Intel — where (general) Windows runs best. By moving away the virtualization will likely not run as well. ----- Gremlin: ----- NO, Apple is doing nothing of the sort. ----- But, of course, even Apple says they are not having Intel virtualization to the level of allowing for Windows VMs. They simply will not run as well IF AT ALL. Hey, why don't we do a Zoom chat which we can share -- where you cannot run away as easily? I would love it. Oh. You would not. I'm not lost, but, I can see why you might think I'm arrogant - despite the fact i'm actually nothing of the sort. I admit, I do come across that way from time to time - but it's NOT intentional. Do you think, in general, arrogant people realize they are... and admit to it? I think some are aware of it, after being told they are by enough people and provided workable examples. So there is hope for you. Good. Obviously, ones such as yourself, not so much no. -- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger. They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again. |

Ha! Ads be gone!

If you know of a good ad blocker that does that, especially in Safari, I would love to see it! read the thread, where various options for both were mentioned, or use a search engine to find something that does what you want, assuming you have enough of a clue to know what to look for. You are right that I have not found one and, given the nature of Safari and its current plugins, it is beyond my ability. i did not say anything about safari, nor are its plug-ins an issue, but no matter the browser, it is indeed well beyond your ability. just as you were ignorant when you cried about my noting how Apple is making it harder to run Windows on Macs as they move away from Intel. more of your fabricated garbage and yet another thing you do not understand. LOL! You really do not remember the conversation we had from a couple days ago. I find that funny. Snit: ----- Thanks for finally getting this. Hence why it makes sense to note Apple does not care enough about Windows to stay on Intel. ----- nospam: ----- idiot savant, Apple has intel virtualization technology present on their silicon. They are not distancing themselves away from Intel. ----- what's funny is you're so eager to attack that you don't even know who said what. i did not say what you quoted, something which should be obvious. But, of course, Apple says they are NOT providing virtualization to allow for running Windows on future Silicon Macs. you are *so* incredibly lost and confused. And of course Apple has been VERY open about moving to Silicon and distancing themselves from Intel. yet in another post, you said that more intel macs are coming, which means apple isn't distancing themselves as much as you are now trying to claim. you can't have it both ways. I posted other sources, including directly from Apple, but here is Apple Insider talking about it: https://appleinsider.com/articles/20...-for-x86-machi ne-virtualization-apps-boot-camp-not-an-option-on-apple-silicon ----- Mac users who rely on Windows virtualization software might be left in the lurch when Apple transitions to its own custom ARM processors later this year, as the company's Rosetta Intel-to-ARM translator does not support virtual machine apps. Apple outlined Rosetta's technically Rosetta 2's limitations in a developer document posted to its website this week, noting that while it can translate "most" Intel-based apps, it is unable to do the same for virtual machine apps that handle x86_64 computer platforms. Popular x86_64 virtualization apps include products from Parallels and VMWare that virtualize Windows environments. ----- that doesn't say what you think it does. It was just ANOTHER area where you really had NO clue what you were talking about projection. the only person without a clue would be *you*, as can clearly be seen in this post and in many, many others. but got really arrogant when you posted about how virtualization and emulation are not the same, as if someone had said otherwise. not only did *you* confuse the two, but you *still* don't understand the difference, and then you have the gall to call others arrogant?? you're not fooling anyone by pretending to know things you do not. |
