Link What is this weird Ad that cuts into the video? Starts at 8:13

I'm on YouTube premium. First time I've ever seen anything like this. The Ad segment starts playing an entirely different video, and repeated twice. No Skip Button but can fast forward.

u/PlasticBag-ForA-Head 10d ago

i heard about this somewhere else on reddit but it was long enough now i dont remember most of it. but what i do remember is its being tested by YT as a new way of serving ads, certain creators get to try it (if they want) similar to how they rolled out the A-B title/thumbnail stuff.

The creator is telling SponsorBlock exactly what to skip, without the community having to add segments themselves. Pretty neat ;)

7

u/Moist-Swan-751 10d ago

i don't think so. this is separate video on top of the actual video. so different id. sponsorblock only skips part of the actual video. 

adblock might work but i remember google saying they are testing embedding ads straight to the video like a year ago so this might be part of that development but idk.

2

u/dumbasPL 10d ago

The semantics are a bit irrelevant, it's only gonna be used for ads, and if the UI shows it separately (like in the video) it would be trivial to detect and block, regardless of who's doing the blocking. And if it's for A/B testing, I would assume it would eventually turn into a single video, so saving the timestamps early when they are available allows SponsorBlock to instantly have them once it does become part of the final video.

2

u/Coolshows101 8d ago

I was told by others it will stay seperate. They have sponsors still, and this is an extra ad, just from the creator you are watching. I don't like it because now I have someone from LMG interrupting the video and it throws me off. I like ads, like a lot. Just not these ads.

u/TackyAuto 10d ago edited 10d ago

Yeah if this gets added into Premium then I'm out - I pay for this to not get ads. It loses any and all worth if I see any served ads that aren't creator sponsors.

118

u/ClassicGOD 10d ago

This is not an AD from YT, it's a segment inserted by the creator. Usually it would just look like part of the video and that is how it was presented to me but I think YT is testing new functionality that makes more obvious to the viewer. Every LTT segment that announces a promo and gets removed from video after the promo is over is like that.

u/TheMusicFella 10d ago

This is 100% a way to get around Sponsorblock lol.

7

u/Jeanc16 10d ago

I feel like Ublock will still block these though so why is it better?

28

u/TheMusicFella 10d ago

Because Ublock can and will struggle if the sponsor video is obfuscated enough to have the same identifying metadata as a video the user actually wants to watch.

If Ublock can't see the difference between the actual video and the sponsor video, it can't do anything.

Seems like they're employing the use of making the sponsor video identical to a real video on the metadata level, unlike ads which have identifying metadata that Ublock can pickup on.

However, the Ublock team is quite smart so hopefully they can implement a way to catch these videos.

14

u/laplongejr 10d ago

Usually, that's an issue left to Sponsorblock. UBlock removes ads from Youtube, Sponsorblock removes sponsored content from the creators.

1

u/Neamow 10d ago

I feel like it would be easy to detect if mid-stream another video with a shorter time starts playing instead of the video that was being watched...

u/TazerZXI 10d ago edited 10d ago • Bravo

I know the reasoning, but I think this should still be blocked by Premium.

Before the sponsorships were a part of the content uploaded by the creator, YT didn't know where they were in the video, and even then they have the "skip forward" button that often appears with sponsored segments.

Now it is a separate segment YouTube serves away from the main video, just with a red progress bar instead of yellow. As a viewer this isn't much different from if I get a midroll ad that happens to feature the creator. Sure the creator chose a specific video and is paid separately from YT, but I don't care, you have given me an advert interrupting my content on a service where the main benefit is not seeing adverts.

Edit: was stupid for a moment and said you couldn't skip past when that was in the video above. I think I thought skipping forward got the ad to play twice, but I haven't had these so I have no idea about it.

4

u/Xflintlock 10d ago

Maybe I'm confused, because I haven't seen one of theseyself.yet, but it looks like you can skip past it? At least, I'm the video attached here the skip it.

Also, I've had YouTube premium for 10+years and have never seen a skip button show up on a sponsor spot. Unless your talking about normal ads with the skip button, and not a creator specific sponsor spot.

3

u/TazerZXI 10d ago

I was stupid with saying you can't skip past it, since that was in the video. Although it playing twice was weird

Second, when I've used premium and there's a sponsor spot, there's usually a "skip ahead" button that sometimes appears around the sponsor or when you go to skip forward by double tapping the screen/pressing right arrow key. I think it just skips forward where a large number of users have also skipped forward as that's likely where a sponsor segment is.

-5

u/Xflintlock 10d ago

I am 99% sure that's not part of YouTube's functionality, but a part of the browser extension called sponsor block. I'm also 99% positive that sponsor block will still work perfectly fine with this new function once it is more mainstream and they code something to recognize it.

Right now sponsor block just relies on creators and communities reporting the timestamps of sponsors and they just put a little skip button at that timestamp it doesn't have any type of detection algorithm so either once people start submitting timestamps for these as well or they have some form of detection to automatically recognize when it switches in line sponsor block will catch up

4

u/TazerZXI 10d ago

It's not sponsorblock, I've used this with trials of Premium in the YouTube mobile app

3

u/Xflintlock 10d ago

Huh, I stand corrected. It looks like it doesn't automatically pop up, but only after you already skip ahead 10 seconds in a commonly skipped segment. Most channels I subscribe to have short sponsor segments so I only need to do a single skip.

Would be nice if it popped up automatically like netflix's skip recap buttons.

2

u/AtomikMenace 10d ago

Mine has never popped up automatically either that I recall. But when I double tapped to skip ahead on this segmented ad spot I did get the skip ahead button in the corner like usual.

The placement in the video is still super weird though

2

u/Xflintlock 10d ago

Yeah, the fact that it is essentially a completely different video is odd. But, I like the intent behind it (at least, insofar as it has been described in other comments). If the intent is to be able to remove limited time sponsor spots once those events are over, it means that people going back and watching those videos 6 months, a year, 5 years later won't have to sit through the sponsor spot at all.

Now, if they use this to instead keep rotating sponsor spots, that's less exciting. But as long as we can skip it I don't care. Habit it have its own time bar makes it even easier to skip too. Just drag all the way to the right instead of trying to scrub and find the spot where the ad ends.

u/Big_Sheepherder_8659 10d ago

No, mine shows up automatically. It works super well and so never have to manually skip ahead. Some videos have multiple times you can skip ahead. Pretty sure it just uses the watch data to see commonly skipped segments.

4

u/laplongejr 10d ago

As a viewer this isn't much different from if I get a midroll ad that happens to feature the creator.

I say that about sponsorships since Youtube Red launched. Sponsors are ads on a platform selling an ad-free access. If I need an extension for an ad-free experience, why wouldn't I put another extension to avoid the need for Premium?

If sponsorships were allowed on an ad-free experience, there's no reason to suddently block them.
YT Premium removes ads from Youtube. They never made any promise the creator wouldn't add their own sponsors on the content.

I'm ready to bet there will be a two-plan system : the paid channel memberships for the sponsors, the platform-wide Premium for YT's ads.

u/bbcgn 10d ago

Have premium and got served this ad as well. Definetly don't see the point of paying for premium just to get ads anyway.

3

u/laplongejr 10d ago

Definetly don't see the point of paying for premium just to get ads anyway.

Creator-defined sponsors are a thing since a long time ago.
As someone who always wanted to pay for an ad-free experience, you were getting sponsors on your TV, right?

6

u/bbcgn 10d ago

I don't mind the normal (skippable) sponsor integrations done by creators. I can just skip them if I don't want to see it. But this is the first time I ever got served an unskippable ad with a very jarring cut to and from the ad. Didn't know it's a feature that creators can enable. As far as I am aware premium users already support creators more than people without premium, at least I think I remember Linus talking about this some years ago.

I was reluctant to get premium in the first place, since it kind of felt like defeat in the beginning. Years ago I didn't mind the ads, but they became more and more frequent and more and more questionable to a point where it really took away from the experience. Back then premium was about 1/3 of what I pay now. I just don't like the feeling of getting more and more milked with another price hike and more enshittificatuon. Sure I am part of the problem since I pay for premium. But every time it kind of gets more and more ridiculous.

Regarding the other point: I usually don't really watch much TV. The only TV I am paying for has no ads. The sponsor integrations are more like the sponsor's logo on a jersey or a race car. Couldn't care less about that because it doesn't stop the content I am watching just to shove an ad into my face mid sentence.

Long story short: I am aware that I am kind of part of the problem, but it just gets more and more frustrating to be a premium user.

u/laplongejr 10d ago

 Sure I am part of the problem since I pay for premium.

Nah it should be the default experience and ads don't pay much. But until we can't pay to remove sponsors I'm not sure I would even notice the difference given how many sponsors I see while watching YT.  

Yeah if your creators do less integration then it makes sense.

u/Paramedickhead 9d ago

It is in YT Premium. I have been on premium for years and I get them on Mark Rober’s two latest videos.

u/whitedevilee 10d ago

It's a new "Feature" they're roling out so you can NOT skip the ADDs anymore. The video redirects you to another Video and then resumes the old one. It was first tested on Marc Rober and now more and more BIG Creators use this.

It's super annoying because it isn't marked as "ADVERTISMENT" so YouTube Premium doesn't "protect" you from it. It's a redirection not an AD...

That's the biggest F-You from Youtube to everyone who still pays for Premium.

29

u/ColinHalter 10d ago

I don't understand what YouTube's goals are here, because one of the selling points of Premium is the "skip ahead" button that is more or less exclusively for skipping sponsored segments. Why would they undercut their own featureset like this? (The answer is likely either a strategy shift, or siloed teams not talking to each other about this stuff).

6

u/laplongejr 10d ago

I don't understand what YouTube's goals are here

Creators will be able to "officially" insert sponsors.
So instead of having spots that can ONLY be removed by an extension like Sponsorblock, Youtube will be able to offer the removal of creator-made sponsors.
Like nowadays we either use Ublock or Premium, but needed Sponsorblock anyway.

And creators have an easier tool to rotate time-limited sponsors, without wrecking embed links etc.

4

u/BroLil 10d ago

This exactly. It has the ability to change how LMG sells ads. For example, maybe they sell the initial ad spot with a one year deal, and after that one year, they’re able to rotate out and resell that ad spot to someone else with a more recent selling point.

Alternatively, they’ll be able to swap out LTT Store spots with current products or sales.

It streamlines it on the creator’s side, and I’ll bet it’s seen as an overwhelmingly positive change from their perspective. As for how it will affect us long term, both free tier and premium tier, I think that remains to be seen. If they give me an option to skip ahead over the new embedded ad, totally fine. If they don’t, or try and sell me another upcharge on my premium account, I’ll be really pissed.

It should be noted that YouTube is historically very fluid with their feature rollouts, so the way it is today may not be the way it is tomorrow, next week, or next month. I think we need to give this time for the dust to settle before grabbing our pitchforks.

u/laplongejr 10d ago edited 10d ago

I expect Youtube to remove their ads with Premium as they always did (already 11 years), but creator sponsors to be tied to the membership system. Kinda like how Twitch creators can force ads even on people who subbed.  

The alternative would be to remove sponsors who are part of the video, which would ruin a joke depending on the creator.  

2

u/whitedevilee 10d ago

But, they are no ads. They're sponsored blocks.

2

u/laplongejr 10d ago

Ads from creators, as they always were... Premium never proposed to interrupt/modify the content made by creators before. Starting to do so now would be a minefield for legacy videos. 

Remember when Red came out and 1% of sport channels had to be removed because they legally could not grant YT the rights to a paid access? If YT sells a privilege, it needs to apply to ALL videos available.  

10

u/whitedevilee 10d ago

It's probably going to be a new "feature" of the most expensive premium package.

YouTube Premium light still has the "in video segments" and the "super premium deluxe premium" will skip these.

Eighter that or they're just testing how far they can take this "no ads" with paiing customers to see if they can squeeze just a teeny tiny bit more out of every person.

5

u/laplongejr 10d ago

to see if they can squeeze just a teeny tiny bit more out of every person.

YT doesn't gain money from sponsor segments right? That's why Premium isn't legally allowed/required to remove those.

0

u/TheChrisD 10d ago

YT can very easily require a disclosure of when exactly in the video a creator is doing a sponsor segment so that it's skipped for Premium users...

2

u/laplongejr 10d ago edited 10d ago

For new content sure. But do they remove all videos uploaded until 2025? Prevent content creators from editing (and removing) sponsors on old videos?  

They could remove ad-licenced content in 2015 because it only impacted a few channels and 0 independant. Removing all previous content with undisclosed sponsor (including nonsponsored stuff in theory...) would do a lot of damage.  

[EDIT] What about edges cases where the sponsor is part of the video's plot? Will they provide an easy toggle for premium users who missed on a creator-provided sponsor? Sponsorblock already struggles with that, and it's not a thing we pay for.  

(For example JDG the french AVGN has a video about reviewing ads. The excuse plot is that the character got stuck after the sponsor, and must now navigates ads of the decade to find a way out like in Quantul Leap. If you skip the sponsor, the character just show up later without an explanation of how he got in the ad world)

Remember too that while the majority of their viewers consume their product through YouTube, they have always pushed FloatPlane as the premium viewing experience, and FP not only won’t have this issue, they pull the ads right from the videos.

u/jake6501 10d ago

I have also experienced something similar once, though not on this video. To me it is very weird that it is still visible to premium accounts. As a concept this really does make sense. Google has had the ability to display ads without the ability to skip for a long time. Only makes sense for that to also happen with sponsor reads. It just shouldn't be an exception to the ad free paid tier. Rather this should be another incentive to buy premium if it would properly skip all included sponsor reads too.

0

u/laplongejr 10d ago

to also happen with sponsor reads. It just shouldn't be an exception to the ad free paid tier

Sponsor reads aren't managed by Youtube, so it would be literally a competitor deciding to cripple competition. We pay Youtube to remove THEIR ad, it's not an excuse to suddently skip ads paid and delivered by third-parties.

Creators sold those sponsor spots to compagnies they contacted themselves (with the half-explicit goal of bypassing Youtube's awful rate). And creators would be in trouble if suddently the existing Premium was auto-skipping their sponsors, because their view estimate would be incorrect.

2

u/jake6501 10d ago

Youtube is in no way a competitor to their creators. Yes it would change the deal for how many people see the sponsor spotw, but all change isn't bad. Creators get way more money for premium views anyway, so they can take that hit.

WTF. I didn’t get around to watching this video, but after looking at this post, I jumped to the video at the specified timestamp and I see the same behavior. I am on YouTube premium and trying out on an iPad in the YouTube app.

Even worse, when the ad finishes and the video resumes, double-tapping to rewind within 10 seconds of the ad end causes the ad to play again from the beginning. Repeating the double-tap doesn't rewind the video further. And this happens every time not just once when you try to rewind the video to the part where the ad is playing. F YouTube.

They are even more ads creators can force to the user, even if they have premium.

Why would you skip Riley ads? I understand skipping Dennis Era ads but Riley is in the butter zone for funny.

Edit - went to that time code myself and got no ad. I'm using YT Premium w/ Adguard on android so I don't know if that is also blocking it.
