        I recommend you guys to install AdBlocker from Chrome and then you will no longer see those annoying ads

          The Opera has been updated, but the problem with blocking ads on YouTube is still not fixed, how long can we wait? We have been waiting all summer and autumn month, why can't you fix it and return it as before?

            It looks like Google outsmarted AdBlock, so a solution I found is only patience. At the start of any video, you will see " An error ocurred" screen. You need to wait for 5 seconds, and the video will resume immediately. So, try this until Opera has a soluti

              No, I just don't understand that they can't fix it for so long, although there was no problem before

                @LIMBOH Yes, it needs to be fixed, and I have seen numerous posts about this problem on various forums. Let see when they are going to fix it.

                  Can you tell us how long to wait for the ad blocker fix, which we can't wait for more than 4 months, so there are also two ads per video?

                    For more than 4 months now, we have been waiting for the ad blocker to be redone. But now it has gotten an even worse turnover: now there are two ads on YouTube.com with a white screen and a "Skip ads" button, and in some sites you go in like you see no ads (for example, Mail.ru) and as soon as you go to another mail or a profile of how the ad appears. I am asking you to fix Opera ad blocker because it does not work correctly.

                        YouTube is still showing its ads, even after restarting the browser and changing settings to default 😞

                          Everytime I get an ad at the start of a video, it doesn't hide it, it just gives me a white screen.
                          Is there any fix to this?

                                Well, it seems Opera will do nothing.

                                  Hello Opera GX forum!

                                  While I have the adblocker feature on and click on a YouTube video it will show me a white screen with the skip button where the ad was supposed to be. Is it possible that I can make it skip this instead of having to manually skip it everytime?.

                                  Here's an example

                                  bb30bab1-2c9e-448b-9593-11b21cdd43c2-image.png

                                    So two days ago I wanted to play some video on youtube, but this time I had AD at the start of the video, I checked, and my AdBlocker was on, so I tried next and next video, all of them had one or two ads. So ads are now at all videos. 95% of the time its always the 3 same ads. I dunno if it is only problem with my opera or simply opera started giving their own ads they get paid for. Do you know why is it happening and what can I do with it?
                                    Thank you

                                        Disable Opera's adblocker and install uBlock Origin.

                                            Go to opera://settings/adBlockerLists and update the lists for Opera's built-in adblocker.
                                            If that doesn't solve it, you can download and use uBlock Origin

                                            Also, don't use multiple adblockers at once as it might cause problems/slow down your browser.

                                            Dream on till your dream comes true
