I am getting lot of ad in Zee5 app. I am using jio fiber bundled ID with my bravia tv zee5 app, but getting 3 ad consecutively unskippable. Within 5 min ad just coming. Very much annoying. Anyway to stop?

Im also facing this with my new airtel subscription. earlier i was using jio only one ad will be appearing at the beginning so i thought its issue with airtel subscription but seems like zee5 done it for all complimentary subscription. now it has became multiple ads at starts, and multiple time multiple ads in middle. that too ads of zee5 shows. totally frustrating. looking out for any mods if applicable for android tv.

This has already started from past 3 months in Jio Airfiber STB as well as in any device which has logged in with same number.

Is this a Jio-specific problem, or does it affect all users regardless of ISP, provided they receive a complimentary Zee5 subscription with their package?

It is from Zee5 they want to monetize using pre roll and mid roll ads for live TV channels both in JioSTB and other logged in devices. Similarly SunNxt shows ads. Even though initially sunNxt focused for JioSTB there were no ads in other logged in devices too. But now from past 2 months even devices other than JioSTB, sunNxt plays lengthy unskippable preroll ads when live TV channels played but there's no midroll ads yet. Initially these ott plans were same as one of the Ott provider's existing plans but now they've modified it. Now it says JIOSTB plan in both Zee5 and SunNxt in JioSTB. And in mobile sunNxt shows as basic monthly subscription. This is complimentary effects from Ott providers
 
And we already know and no need to talk about JioSTB as ads popup in STB in all places - STB Booting, banners, JioTV+ shows ads on its own anytime anywhere in native channels.

The sad part is its poor implementation after the ad ends most of the time the player doesn't start playing the content stands still struck with loading icon. Zee5 is such a horrible app with this buggy situation. But from past 2 weeks this situation is improving but not fully fixed.
