I wonder if a Pi-hole with a good adlist could stop those ads from appearing - sadly/luckily i don't own a NVidia Shield.
Maybe someone else can weigh in if that approach does work (maybe with additionally setting up your router to redirect everything DNS back to the Pi-hole)?
- agloeregrets 5y agoI can answer this, I have a piHole and Chromecast with Google TV The article is mixing up the types of banners seen here. The recommendation hero row is full of recommendations tailored to you based on watch history. Google however can fill the first slot with a targeted content ad (notably lately, Black Widow on Disney+). My piHole absolutely blocks the first slot and leaves it with an unsightly blank space, the rest of the content remains.
- yardie 5y agoI have a pihole and it stops them from appearing but leaves blank/black spaces. Not just on the launcher but in the app as well. For example, IMDBtv will have 15-30s of blank air where nothing happens. The first time this happened I thought the app crashed because FF/Pause/Play didn't do anything. And then the movie resumed and did it again 30 minutes later.
