So I have a new OPNsense install with the latest updates, Sensei installed with the following blocks:

On a PC with a browser, this is no issue as UBO takes care of this easily. However under the YT app on WebOS, nothing seems to work. Any ideas here? Is this even possible?
I also have unbind setup with several DNSBL lists enabled which seem to work good but not sure if they are able to help here too?
I dont have any YT specific app blocked as I dont want to block the app itself, right?
Any advice on blocking ads and/or surveys on YT here?

Hi,
Can you share the screenshot of Live Blocked Session (Reports - Block)?
Sure, I will get those next. I am sure there are some "ads" being blocked and logged but not the visible ones normally seen while using the official YT app. Will post back soon.... Thanks

Well, I think we are on to something here. After looking at these pages, I seen NO blocks! After looking around it appears my Smart TV is bypassing my DNS servers/settings and going straight to Googe 8.8.8.8! >:(
I know there is a way to fix this with FW rules, so looking into this now. At least this is step 1.
@Sy, will reply back tomorrow once I can get this fixed and working properly.
Hi, so not sure I am doing this right but trying to re-direct all DNS queries to OPNsense as even thought I have my SmartTV set to this (GW of .1), it still ends up going to google (8.8.8.8). All other devices on the network are fine and use their default GW for DNS.

Here is how I have the NAT port forwarding setup as described in this link: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=9245.0 (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=9245.0)
I may need to reply to that thread also to ensure this is right.

Also, under Sensei: Reports: Connections I see plenty of stuff, but under Blocks, I see nothing! I would think with the settings I have there should be plenty being blocked and logged here right? :-\
Also I think its configured right? I have all 6 interfaces selected.

Hi @vpn,
Can you send a bug report (from the upper right corner of Sensei GUI)? I would like to look into config and log files.
@sy, just sent the report, please let me know if you need anything else. ;D
