Hi! We get a lot of requests from users who want to support sites by allowing banner ads while still blocking video ads. Is there a custom filter that will do this?
Thanks!
A filter to block only video ads?

it depends on the page .. there is no general approach
According to this post on the ABP blog, EasyList now contains a filter that blocks these ads. Way to go, guys!!!!

Couldn't a filter like this theoretically work?
Code: Select all

No, you whitelisted the whole site. She was talking about whitelisting the site but blocking the video ads.
The new filter is only for firefox, you need $other for chrome and .. sometimes the video ads are blocked blocking the scripts not directly the video ad itself.
