Change "^/(.*)" to "^/published/(.*)" in the url.redirect configuration. This seems to allow non-video communications with the Hulu ad servers to go through unmolested, while redirecting only the ad videos to the local media server. I've tested the change and it works well for me. |

Raspberry Pi Ad Blocker
A black hole for ads, hence Pi-hole
The Pi-hole is a DNS/Web server that will block ads for any device.
Automated Install
On a clean installation of Raspbian, you can run this command to auto-install the Pi-hole. Once installed, configure any device to use the Raspberry Pi as your DNS server and the ads will be blocked.
curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/master/automated%20install/basic-install.sh" | bash
Gravity
The gravity-adv.sh does most of the magic. The script pulls in ad domains from many sources and compiles them into a single list of over 120,000 entries.
Whitelist and blacklist
You can add a whitelist or blacklist in /etc/pihole/ and the script will apply those files automatically.
Other Operating Systems
This script will work for other UNIX-like systems with some slight modifications. As long as you can install dnsmasq and a Webserver, it should work OK. The automated install only works for a clean install of Raspiban right now since that is how the project originated.
Optimizations
I am working on some great optimizations to allow the script to run much faster. I also have a bunch of new sources for ad domains but I still need to see if the lists are OK.
