This is how I use SponserBlock with YouTube on my Apple TV: https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV >iSponsorBlockTV is a self-hosted application that connects to your YouTube TV app and automatically skips segments in YouTube videos using the SponsorBlock API.

No, but SponsorBlock[0] is fantastic for that. I even have it setup on my home server[1] so it skips sponsor segments on my Apple TV, which is where we watch most of our YouTube. [0] https://sponsor.ajay.app/ [1] https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV

The article links to iSponsorBlockTV: https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV This doesn't change the UI as such, but it auto-mutes ads, and auto-skips once the skip option is available. It's a bit of a funny thing to setup, but it works great once setup.

I have an Apple TV and I’ve been running iSponsorBlockTV [1] on my Synology box for a while. It auto-skips the sponsored segments and with Youtube premium, it gives me a clean, ad-free setup. I can’t stand those in-video intros or sponsored promos, where I’m suddenly pitched a random VPN or productivity app. [1]. https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV

I've been using this for a while. It's certainly better than nothing, but there are limitations. Most notably for me, automatic muting doesn't work when HomePods are the default output[1] [1] https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV/issues/60#issuecomment-1762994606

Sponsor Ads can be blocked on the Apple TV YouTube app using iSponsorBlockTV on a home server: https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV

https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV should get you started. In HA, it will available in the Settings > Add-ons / Add-on store. If you don't have home assistant, you can always run it on an rpi or in docker on a system on your network. https://medium.com/@lumenyx/isponsorblocktv-on-a-raspberry-pi-to-make-youtube-ads-more-bearable-12b07a022ec1

At least for SponsorBlock you can run iSponsorBlockTV[1] on another computer on the same network - in addition to skipping sponsored segments, it also mutes YouTube’s own ads and auto-skips them as soon as it can. [1] https://github.com/dmunozv04/iSponsorBlockTV
