- dspillett 5y agoDoes youtube-dl or one of its variants get the content or is that somehow blocked by the age check? If the former then you can skip the adverts that way too. Though it would be a bit of manual faf (open page, copy URL, wait, play video from resulting local file) compared to just streaming direct from the youtube page.
