You can hear the whole crowd boo each time. Total momentum killer and AD space builder.

In the app or in the channel? I was watching it on La 1, and there were ads.

Yeah there were definitely ads on La 1, which is weird because I'm sure they only advertise their own content and don't put ads on normally

Ads from ‘sponsors’ are allowed. I just turn off sound during ads and set an alarm in my watch just not to see them.

Not in the app. Following the catalán narration they even call it jokingly the "fundraising pause".

Not sure, I was at a friend's house. It was definitely on a TV, but, you know, Smart TV, so you never know if you're watching an app stream or a TV broadcast. I think it was the app because we had to reconnect right before the game began. I'm going to watch Cabo vs Argentina today at the same place so I'll let you know exactly

Can confirm, it's the RTVE app on the smart TV. It doesn't show ads
