Block Ads in 9now Streams on Apple TV

Has anyone been able to block ads in 9now streams on Apple TV? I tried using the NextDNS.io profile but the ads still play.

    I tried using a sledgehammer and everything stopped playing.

      I looked for the sledgehammer plugin without luck. Any links?

    • This was the first thing that came to mind for me.

    TBH, sometimes the ads are the best thing to watch on 9

      probably has more thoughts put into them too.

  • Does this mean there's workarounds for other FTA apps?

  • Pretty sure the ads are embedded so can’t be blocked.

      They're definitely not embedded. Matt's 9now Kodi addon plays 9now streams commercial free (same with 7plus). It also doesn't do ad insertion during live streams either. Absolutely brilliant way of ad-free television (even if a little dubious).

      The obvious evidence of this is the run time listed in the app is without the adverts.

      • Cool. Thanks for clarifying.
