Update: went in to the Adblocker settings and instead of In Player switched to With blocklist and seems to have fixed the issue. I never had touch that setting until today to test if it would fix it. always since i use your player have had the Default? In player.

3.4.0 has fixed the broken inplayer adblock for me on Linux for now.

I've got occasional ads coming through now again, running v3.4.1 on macOS, using adblocker with the blocklists option selected and the following in my config.json:

"adblocker": {
	"enabled": true,
	"cache": true,
	"blocker": "With blocklists",
	"additionalBlockLists": [
		"https://filters.adtidy.org/extension/ublock/filters/122_optimized.txt"
	],
	"disableDefaultLists": false
},

Any ideas why this isn't working anymore?

Exactly the same thing is happening to me, I'm using the web setup windows version. I am not able to find any fix

i think the blocklist's outdated

Same problem for me, started a couple of days ago.

To anyone who has this problem with the blocklist, you can try these steps:

1. Get the filters that uBlock is using by default and save them in a txt file in case they need to be updated again.

  Here are the ones enabled by default when you install the extension for the first time:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/filters/privacy.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/filters/badware.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/filters/filters.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/thirdparties/easylist/easyprivacy.txt
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/master/thirdparties/easylist/easylist.txt

  I used all of them in my list (I did this just to be sure I don't let an ad escape 😄).  If you want, you can choose which ones to use and which not to, but I recommend keeping the filters.txt if you want this to work.

2.  Merge the filters into one list using this site.

   After you save the filters txt file, go to this site: https://realityripple.com/Tools/AdBlock++/ and paste all of the filter links in the rules text box, then click on generate to merge them into one list.  image

3. Save the generated list in a text file then upload it somewhere where it can be accessed directly without downloading it.

    You can also create a gist, paste the list in that gist, and then use the raw link instead.

4. After you copied the link, replace it with the current one, and that's it.

"additionalBlockLists": [
"https://www.somesite.com/uBlockFilterListsMerged.txt"
],

5. Happy listening! 🎵
