Posted October 14, 201212 yr Not exactly 'troubleshooting' as such, but nearly everytime I open a new page on Buzzjack, the video advert in the top right corner starts playing and I've got to mute it ASAP before I punch my screen. It's getting to the point where I can't really put up with it anymore so I was wondering if there was anyway to stop them from auto-playing or whether you can get rid of the video adverts from Buzzjack?
October 14, 201212 yr ADBLOCK. It stops all adverts and is possibly the best thing to happen to the internet. Install here!
October 14, 201212 yr the ad plays a sound?? Thats very unusual and something I have never seen before. Can you give more details of the ad?
October 14, 201212 yr Author the ad plays a sound?? Thats very unusual and something I have never seen before. Can you give more details of the ad? It's usually just a picture in the top right hand corner, but recently they seem to have changed to video adverts (there's quite a few!) and they automatically play when you open up a new page which is really annoying :( I'll have to try that Theo thank you! :D
October 20, 201212 yr Just spoke to the ad supplier and google ads although can show video does not play music unless you click it... If it happens again please let me know the brand and details of the video. A screenshot would be great!! Also ad blockers are very bad for BuzzJack!! They mean BuzzJack earns less from advertising which we need to pay for the server costs! No server, no BuzzJack!!!!!!

They seemed to have stopped since I posted this thread, but I'll let you know if that changes!

October 20, 201212 yr I installed Adblock the other week because of automatic playing adverts. They were getting pretty regular on BuzzJack but they're becoming increasingly common throughout the internet.
October 20, 201212 yr Well surely you only earn from them being clicked on? some are based on just impressions, others (majority) on clicks. But if you dont see any ads your sure not to view or click!!
