Use pihole regex filter?
I did take a quick look at your scripts and it looks like you are filtering the dns query log with a regex and add all matched domains to the blacklist. I am wondering why you are not directly using a blacklist regex filter in pihole? Something like

Kind regards,

It looks like you are correct. Is your script doing any further filtering?
Hello,
I've tested and had no entire block.
My YouTube appears to be working.
Anyway, I reopened a issued about the script is not reading and adding domain to backlist.
I commented on a issue that was closed with the same behaviors.

Ok, again,
I have reinstalled the script.
Looks like Regex only is blocking entire Googlevideo.com.
Maybe if we are able to usa only part of the Regex , should work.

Hi boss. I think service check subdomain after 5 minutes. That mean dns A-record TTL < 1800-5*60. Blocked
Hi @jbreitbart

No, it's as simply as that, just one regexp. The log file is been read every 5 mins (approx) and all those googlevideo subdomains that match the regexp are directly blocked.
Hello,
Me again.
Looks like something is not working.
Almost nothing more is blocked:

I'm not sure, but is it correct that after
Database "update"
in line 265 there is no Gravity update?
See line 179 and 180:
Database "update"
pihole updateGravity > ${GRAVITY_LOG} 2>&1 &
Hello,
The main problem in my opinion, is that no new domains are being inserted.
Today, only two new domains were inserted, but I saw a lot of ads.
Maybe YT changed something.
