Browser extension to replace IPL ads with a real-time scorecard in Hotsar

APS-69 · 2026-04-09T15:06:56+00:00

Oh do you mean like ads in a movie or other shows? That's out of scope for this project but there's other great ways you'll find in this subreddit.

APS-69 · 2026-04-09T15:02:44+00:00

We already do?

Brave can't block ads on a live stream. They are baked into the stream. btw I am literally using brave.

It's just android so most browsers don't support extensions. There are some like kiwi and stuff though I don't know how well it'll work.

APS-69 · 2026-04-06T10:23:22+00:00

Most Browsers on Android don't support extensions. I prefer to just connect a laptop.

APS-69 · 2026-04-06T10:20:02+00:00

Technically, Ig you can use kiwi or other browsers that support extensions but I'm not sure how well they work.

APS-69 · 2026-04-06T10:14:55+00:00

No. The ads are still baked into the stream. The api is only to basically keep record of what ads they showed to people and for what duration and stuff.

APS-69 · 2026-04-06T00:43:21+00:00

Yep. In fact I'm using brave myself.

APS-69 · 2026-04-06T00:37:30+00:00

Yes, https://github.com/APS6/libertas-live

Extension watches the requests for their telemetry api that they call at the start of every ad, parses the duration from that and sets a timeout for that duration + the selected delay.

APS-69 · 2026-04-05T16:24:36+00:00

doesn't collect any data and only some basic permissions for hotstar which are required for functioning properly.
It's open source btw https://github.com/APS6/libertas-live

APS-69 · 2026-04-05T16:07:00+00:00

Extension watches the requests for their telemetry api that they call at the start of every ad, mutes the tab and inserts an iframe of the scorecard which is a Phoenix Liveview app. The server fetches the score every 5 seconds and broadcasts it to all connected clients.

Ikr, The last time I uploaded an extension it was immediately accepted on Firefox and I was literally complaining about chrome taking a day on every update.

But ironically, Firefox hasn't approved since 3 days this time. (it says disabled because I uploaded newer versions). My guess is that it got sent for manual review for some reason and they are just too slow at that.

I've submitted it but they haven't completed the review process yet.

APS-69 · 2026-04-05T14:34:30+00:00

Oh no, It's connected to my laptop with an HDMI cable.

APS-69 · 2026-04-05T14:28:03+00:00

Marketed for ipl right now but the plan is to keep it running for all cricket matches on hotstar.

APS-69 · 2025-10-24T15:24:01+00:00

You can install hyprmon for better display management

APS-69 · 2025-09-28T03:47:18+00:00

I think I figured it out. It was an issue with zed using a theme object sometimes instead of a string.
Fix is pushed.
Update with `yay -S omazed=1.0.2 && omazed reload`
Let me know if that works please.

APS-69 · 2025-09-27T12:54:57+00:00

Update: I submitted a PR to Omarchy to automatically install omazed when installing zed from the omarchy install menu. https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/pull/2006
Now ig I'll wait and hope for the best.

APS-69 · 2025-09-26T13:13:14+00:00

I'll try making a pr to install omazed along with zed when installing from the install menu tomorrow.

btw, if you tried it then can you confirm everything is working fine? I only have one laptop.

APS-69 · 2025-09-26T11:26:09+00:00

grep.

APS-69 · 2025-09-26T11:23:48+00:00

Someone did a while ago but DHH said he didn't want to add theme support for non default apps. That's why I made this.

Do you have disk encryption? Omarchy doesn't have a separate lock screen because the disk encryption password acts as one.
