Some games require you to watch video ads to get some points or rewards. Is there a way to fast forward or skip these ads? Is there an Exposed module or something similar?

I installed the NetFlix Queue manager that uses Adobe Air but am not having any luck getting it to work. It loads but I get a chrome error screen that the page isn't available, I believe that there is some reference to a token missing (or something similar). Anyone know if this issue can be resolved? I love the application on my phone and would love it to work on the tablet as well.
No one is using NetFlix Queue manager? I can't imagine anyone owning a tablet not wanting access to there NetFlix queue. Does this app work for others?
I honestly don't care about managing my queue from the tablet. I do most from my 360 or my PC....so I haven't looked at the app you are looking at.
I only care about watching Netflix on my tablet....and hoping for a Tegra2 supported .apk for this. PlayOn will do it...but I'm not paying an annual fee (PlayOn) for something I'm already paying a monthly fee for (Netflix) since that's all I'd do with it....watch Netflix.
Doesn't work for me either. Yes, I'm disappointed, because I have a media player than only works with the queue, so it'd be nice to be able to use the tab to manage it. Oh well...
The official Netflix apk that's floating around this forum may not be able to play movies on the GTab, but it works great for managing your Instant Queue.

Can anyone point me to this apk?
I don't know exactly why but my phone just doesn't like the official hulu plus app could be a memory hog or something else and since Hulu doesn't seem to want to help I came here. Does anyone know of an app that you can watch hulu on that is of course safe that I can use to watch my hulu stuff on the go? I have a feeling the app is just a memory hog since I can do other streaming app with no problems.
YouTube and Netflix are all I can use reliably
? I'm talking about hulu why are you talking a YouTube and Netflixs

A few questions...
Does the same video play from YouTube on your phone/tablet or a computer?
Are you using any DNS/region relocation services like Unotelly, Unlocator, etc?
Are you using a VPN?

1. Yes i can play it without any error, as normally played on the Youtube app.
2. No, i am not using any such service.
3. No i am not using VPN.
supporting information:
Youtube is officially blocked in my country (Pakistan), thus youtube cannot be accessed using internet browser. But if i use youtube app in my android using wifi i can access youtube and can play all videos. If i do the same over mobile data, its restricted. I can understand that browser or mobile data doesnt support youtube because it has been blocked by our Government but how is it possible i can use it on android app?
Lets assume authorities have left a loop hole here that it can be played using android youtube app but it can not be played using browser, then why chromecast cant play it? does it work on the pattern or structure of a web browser?

Exactly that. Your phone isn't retrieving the YouTube data and passing it to Chromecast.
Chromecast is a separate autonomous client. It's like if you see something on your phone and read the URL to your friend who puts that into their YouTube client. So whatever loophole exists on your phone, Chromecast doesn't have it.
I've seen several videos of people getting YouTube in full screen on their mix, how is it possible? I still got the black bezel thing on top and bottom, in full view mode? :/
No one knows?

Could you link to one of those videos? As far as I know, this is not possible. You have to either download videos first, and stretch it with a videoplayer, or you can parse the youtube link through one of those download services, then paste it in a player to stream it. Not a seamless experience exactly.
People say you can use certain web browsers (like uc browser, opera etc.) to open web videos in an external player, but I can't find the option in any of them. Maybe they have removed this option in later updates. I remember I could do it long ago. Doubt it will do youtube videos anyway. You get this sense that everyone wants to force you to use their own integrated player alone.
Anyone else who can point to a browser that can open videos externally? Just regular web videos?
Morning, about youtube, I like to ear movies as well but there is the touch issues... with SONY I have a smart app able to lock the screen from un-accidental touch, did we have app alike here?
Cheers,
Work with this modded APK:

You can do it without root on every video on Youtube !
Just activate the "Magnification gesture" setting and then triple tap whenever you want to "zoom in" a Youtube video,it will still crop a little part of the video to make it full screen if the ratio is not the same though.
Just install YouTube Vanced Rootless APK and the modded MicroG Google Service APK.
This gives you ad-free YouTube, background playback and full zoom to fit support.

Thanks man! Was using ogyoutube but this one is better.
You're welcome. This, retroarch with 2:1 ratio setting, moonlight with screen stretch setting and Netflix make for a brilliant multi purpose gaming and movie consumption device, as all of them will display content full screen.
I'm trying to figure outdifferent approaches and I kind of run into a wall here.
I don't just want to block youtube ads, I want to block all ads within the Chromecast. I'm somewhat tech savvy but not advanced with routing. So far I've side loaded adguard onto the Chromecast and installed it successfully. However, I've not found a way to install the certificate for https. I've been looking into ways to do that but I'm not sure it's possible.
I bought a raspberry pi to try to figure out how to do adguard and managed to install it but then somehow I couldn't log back in so that's another mess I'm trying to figure out.
Thirdly I've already screwed up my router so I might as well try to figure out how to install open wrt.
Can anybody give me some advice about which way to go and what's the best method? Or am I missing something? Like rooting the Chromecast? I've always rooted my phone's I mean it will that make a difference?
There is currently no root for Chromecast with Google TV.
You should be able to block ads via PiHole but you'll probably run into problems and need to whitelist some links depending on what apps you use.
There's also apps like this that you could use or VPNs with ad-blocking built-in. Though, apps like Amazon Prime, Hulu, and some others can tell if you're using a VPN on it sometimes. I've also never been able to really block ads on those on Google TV.
I have a paid VPN with adblocking but what I mostly do is use apps like SmartTubeNext (SmartYouTube predecessor now that it's defunct) and then I'll use Lucky Patcher to patch out ads on any really ad-heavy apks. However, this can't be done for apks like Hulu, Amazon Prime (free w/ ads section), etc.
I've used Blokada to try to block ads, without luck. I've tried blocking almost everything google, I only ended up having Google TV think it's offline, and would not provide access to the applications list.
I have a raspberry pi with AdGuardHome and it works on apps, but not on YouTube since they're served from the same domain.
Casting from phone to TV will show up ads no matter what. So the best alternative is to use smarttubenext, which is great and updated frequently.
I wouldn't root it even if it was possible though, you may break your widevine level.
If you have any doubt regarding AdGuardHome you can send me a pm or telegram
I sideloaded Adguard onto mine and it works fine out of the box. The only thing I can't enable on it is https filtering since there is no app available that can save the certificate. I've even tried sideloading Google Files but that didn't allow me to save the certificate either. For now, I don't think it's possible to save the crt file for https filtering on the Chromecast.
I'm using a stock Chromecast HD with Google TV.
