MiBox 3 Android 8 ad free youtube for chromecast

by Gaboros

I have a MiBox 3 with the latest android 8. I want to disable youtube ads while casting from the phone.

Tried youtube vanced and disabling the default youtube app. It's working partially. It doesn't have the default interface and the ads are blocked when the video is played from the app. But it doesn't working while casting from the phone. The phone also have youtube vanced.

Tried alternate dns in the router and adguard dns. Doesn't solve it.

Also tried ad guard, still ads.

Is there any way to disable the youtube ads while casting?

Adguard has made clear that blocking YouTube ads in the app is difficult, but that there are some solutions.

Not to be a dick, but I literally googled 'adguard dns youtube' and clicked the first result.

You can try this. Open Smart Youtube TV app and go to settings. Link with TV code. It will show you a 12 digit code. Go on your phone, open youtube>settings>Watch on TV>Link with TV Code. Enter the 12 digit code from the Smart youtube TV app. Now your phone is linked. Now, when you try casting from youtube, it will give you 2 options, MiBox and youtube TV. If you select "Youtube TV" it will be played through the Smart Youtube TV app, not through the regular Chromecast. This will only work if you open your smart youtube TV app before casting from your phone. If you cast without opening the app on Mibox it won't work.

Are the ads that much of a problem? You're getting free video hosted and streamed. Is watching a few ads to help them keep it free not acceptable?
