Notes:
- Has only been tested on H MST
- The adblocking javascript is injected into every widget, but that shouldn't cause problems (there is an if statement to execute only if the url is www.youtube.com)
- Adblocking code is from https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos
- First install modded YT app, by extracting the zip and moving it to /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user, unfortunatelly it doesn't seem to load properly into the stock one (seems to not act as a normal widget), as a bonus you will get 1080p UI and video playback (stock is all 720p)
- You will need samyGOso
- Copy libYTAdblock.so into /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso
- Copy 99_95_YTAdblock.init into /mnt/etc/init.d to autostart or load manually with
Code: Select all
samyGOso -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso/libYTAdblock.so -n WidgetEngine - IMPORTANT: After loading up youtube, open settings and close with return to load the script, a popup will appear on screen to inform you it has been loaded, do it everytime you open youtube
The code is probably not of particularly high quality, I'm not very experienced with this sort of stuff. There are definitely better ways to implement it. It contains static offsets, modifies instructions, writes to read only memory... It shouldn't break the TV, it doesn't write anything to storage, but proceed with caution mainly if testing on other tv models.
H series is old, but YT still works and I hope someone will get some use out of this, if it works for you, let me know. Thanks.
