YouTube updates their adblocking detection algorithm few times a day so you need to keep updating ublock few times a day too. However you don’t need to update the entire filter list. Find the one that says “quick fixes”, click the clock icon after it and then the update button on the top. So far this has worked for me. Previously I was getting that pop-up several times a day and now I’ve went almost a week without. Also if you’re using firefox, as you should, make sure you disable the enhanced tracking protection for YouTube (shield icon at the address bar before www.youtube.com…)
Yesterday after not updating the filters for a while I got the “video player will be blocked after 3 videos” pop-up, but after updating the filters I haven’t seen that one again either and the player haven’t been blocked either.
