<div dir="ltr">thanks all. I definitely want to try that wrapper posted by Thomas, as it would be great to have advert detection working again. Just to clarify, I have a combined FE/BE, so disabling advert detection on the BE was simply leading to the queue filling up with jobs that were never executed. I think rather than changing my rules, if I want to disable it, I will do it channel by channel (by checking the "no ads on this channel" option).</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 23 December 2015 at 22:51, Hika van den Hoven <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hikavdh@gmail.com" target="_blank">hikavdh@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hoi blind,<br>

</span>On a frontend, the are in the rulelist. I don't think you can edit<br>
them in Mythweb.<br>

</span>Yes and as I understood, that is what he did. Only that will not stop<br>

your task list gets filled up with waiting tasks.<br>
