I’m getting tired of the extremely loud ads on that don’t seem to be subject to the old TV broadcasting laws that prevent them from being blasted 10db louder than the actual content. Wondering if there’s stuff out there that would let me take the hdmi stream from my Apple TV or other streaming source, and do ad detection...
Because I think this could be neat product……kinda like PiKVM, but maybe using ML to detect ads and make it a nice community tool to block in a device independent way. like hardware Adblock.
Yeah I think hdcp and reprocessing would be most difficult. There are hdmi splitter devices like those used for coloured bias lighting that I think could be used….similarly I think the processing actually isn’t unsolvable, it’s not much different than object detection from a live camera stream. I agree re-encoding the stream would be too hardware intensive for anything “cheap” like a pi, hence the secondary device control alternative initially, but analyzing the stream should be possible.
That’s the act I was thinking of. I’m almost certain web streamers will say it doesn’t apply to them……and it’s definitely one of those things you’d take for granted until you hit the “new” streaming medium and realize why it was necessary in the first place.
I suspect we got off on the wrong foot when I called it a product instead of just a project idea, but I don’t actually disagree with that stance. Cheers.
I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....

What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?
