Describe the bug
iSponsorBlockTV just skip/mute ads.

To Reproduce

  1. Open video
  2. Watch muted ad until the skip button appears
  3. Ad finishes
  4. Watch video until next ad appears, and the process is repeated (mute/skip)

Expected behavior
Please feel free to correct if I’m wrong, maybe I misunderstood something.

When in the description says:
It connects to the device, watches its activity and skips any sponsor segment using the [SponsorBlock](https://sponsor.ajay.app/) API. It can also skip/mute YouTube ads.

For me, it seems that iSponsorBlockTV has two features or ways to block ads:

  1. Uses SponsorBlock and the ad will not appear at all
  2. Mutes and skips ads once the “skip” banner appears.

Right now what it happens to me is the second option; however, what I am expecting is the first option where ads do not appear at all.

iSponsorBlockTV server (please complete the following information):

  • OS: HomeAssistant

Apple TV (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Apple TV 4K
  • OS: tvOS 18.2

the ads that this "blocks" is sponsorship ads within the video itelf--not the YouTube ads that interupt the video.

@boterocamilo It'd be ideal if we could completely skip native YouTube ads, but sadly we haven't found a way to do it
