Happened to discover this a while ago.

If an ad starts playing in the main window that moves the livestream to a small window in the top right corner, do the following:

  1. Mute the main stream.
  2. Hover your mouse over to the tiny window and click the PiP button.
  3. Unmute the PiP stream

You can now continue to watch the livestream uninterrupted. Once the ad concludes, the PiP pop-up window automatically closes and the main stream continues.

I usually enlarge the PiP window and move it over the ad to cover it.

This is basically a manual method of what add-ons like Alternate Player for Twitch.tv do.

      Same only solution I have found is a VPN called windscribe I pay for it as it’s my VPN of choice right now and increadblt cheap but anyways it has a browser ad on that you can turn on then put in a region (I forgot what one) because apparently twitch can not show ads there. It has worked for me I don’t watch much twitch anymore but when I do it seems to work.

        I read somewhere that if you connect to Serbia, Twitch won’t show ads

        I haven’t confirmed it because I very rarely watch Twitch either, and when I do it’s my friends’ channels and nothing with ads

          yea Yea not sure why I got downvotes but works for me. I had to Google the locations that don’t show ads it was how I got the idea.
