      Hello! I am using pfblockerng and I have the audio/video lock enabled. However, I need to authorize access only to Youtube. Could anyone give me a tip on how to do this? Generate an exception in the group block ... Thank you!

          @NollipfSense Hi, thanks for the answer! :-)
          I used:
          Firewall -> pfblockerng -> DNSBL -> DNSBL Category
          Then I selected UT1 (Un. Toulouse) and after clicked in Audio/Video option.
          The problem is that I need to block Netflix, Amazon, etc, but not Youtube, because Professors use it.
          Thank you!

            Okay, I had only used the shellalist...
            If I were you, I would disable the audio/video then add YouTube only to the DNSBL whitelist...just click on the plus sign and add youtube.com in the drop down box, then force update and reload.
