Yes the way YT loads ads it won’t work to simply block them with a simple DNS pattern match, you need a proper adblocker or third party app. But you can block all the other nuisance clutter on the smart TV, at least.
My TV is hooked to my PC now as a monitor, so I just watch YT on it right in Firefox.
I was told YouTube is excluded from said benefit.
