Hi @Duckface21, Apologies for being AWOL for a while. Reviewing the github repo, it appears you are correct, sponsorblockcast has been deprecated. I'll take a look into the CastSponsorSkip as soon as I get some time and migrate this template to that container / deprecate this template. It should be worth noting that CastSponsorSkip is marked as beta in releases by the maintainer.

Hi @PeterHS, @Duckface21, @TheLaughingMan, I've not had any joy with modifying the script in this container - unfortunately, my coding skills are not sufficient to be able to do this. As a result I took down the template for a while. Recently, like Duckface, I have created a User Script ("docker restart sponsorblockcast") and set it to run hourly to restart the container. Unlike Duckface, I was only encountering the issue after 24hrs. I've set my script to run hourly. While not ideal, it is a pragmatic middle ground that I can accept and am happy to recommend to others to try. For me, the benefits of the container/script (especially when coupled with a Youtube Premium subscription) is fantastic. So I personally, am willing to accept a script restarting a container every hour. I've re-released the template, and updated it to include multiple recommendations to set up a scheduled user script for users who are still interested in using the script.

Hi @Duckface21, I agree - I've also noted that the script appears to stop working (at least for detecting skippable ads) after a period of time. The updated version of the script doesn't appear to improve the CPU usage. I'm open to forking the repo and attempting to improve the script for CPU usage if there are others who are able to provide assistance (the scripting language is not familiar to me)

Interesting observation - I'll keep an eye on CPU usage as well.

Hi, I'm also noting that there are some youtube ads that don't get skipped. Here's a summary of the expected behaviour based on my understanding of this container: Sponsored Segments (content creator delivered ad) Will skip IF crowd sourced database from sponsorblock service has been updated with details about the sponsor segment. Skippable Youtube Ads (Skip button displayed after 6 seconds of advertisement) Will skip when the button is displayed Non-skippable Youtube Ads (no skip button is displayed and you must watch the whole ad) No action can be taken and the full ad will be displayed and watched I do highly recommend getting and implementing an API key - it did increase the detection of which video & ad types were playing. I'm noting some inconsistent behaviour of the 2nd scenario, where the skippable ad should skip. I found that another github user had forked the repo and made some changes recently aimed at improving the skipping of skippable ads. I currently have this update forked in my repo and am conducting testing of that version as well. If it proves to be more reliable, I'll update the template (the forked repo hasn't rebuilt the container as far as I could tell, so I'll need to build and distribute it). If I update the template, I'll post another reply here & update credits to recognise the additional developer.

Hi everyone! This thread can be used for support for the SponsorBlockCast template of nichiobi's SponsorBlockCast POSIX script. Nichiobi's github repo can be found here: https://github.com/nichobi/sponsorblockcast Full credit to Nichiobi for this awesome script! SponsorBlockCast is an awesome script that monitors network traffic looking for Chromecast devices playing Youtube videos. If detected, it will skip any sponsor segments (segments are crowdsourced and data on sponsor segments may not always be available) in the video. Additionally, depending on the device, this script will attempt to skip any skipable Youtube ads. I do recommend obtaining a Youtube API key to improve the scripts ability to detect playing media. I've tested this container using a Chromecast Ultra and Nvidia Shield (casting) and it works great. Additionally, when using the Youtube app on the Nvidia Shield, the script is able to skip the sponsor segments. ** This container must run in host mode ** Final note: If there is a content creator that provides you with quality content that you get value from, please do consider supporting them in other ways (if you aren't already). Please feel free to raise any issues with this template here and I will do my best to assist.

Thanks for noting loungeChair. Unfortunately, I can't assist with your issues as I didn't write the application. Please raise any issues on the github page for the project. Thanks

Hi, I've created a Community Apps template for the great docker container signal-cli-rest-api developed by bbernhard. All credit for the application goes to bbernhard. Any issues with the template, please feel free to reach out here and I will be willing to assist where able. This template is what has worked for me to get the container up and running on Unraid and able to send messages/notifications to myself. For issues with the application itself, the github repo is here: https://github.com/bbernhard/signal-cli-rest-api Thanks! Warieon
