    If it’s the standard one with four rectangular buttons on each side of the screen, the second button from the top on the right side should mute the audio. Ad will still play but at least you don’t have to listen to it.

      Where I live, that used to be a reliable way to mute the ads, but they’ve started disabling it as word gets out.

      I accidentally invoked the admin menu once while screwing around with all of the buttons on one. It was kind of a thrill at first, but then I was worried I’d get caught on CCTV committing a “hacker crime” or some other fascist bullshit, so I just exited out of it.

      I don’t remember the exact sequence but it was something like I pressed all 4 of the outer buttons at the same time then pressed all 4 of the inner ones at the same time.

        It’s usually something dumb like that, shitty manufactures have shitty default passwords.

      Oh nice! I will check next time. I try to avoid that gas station for obvious reasons. If that does actually work, I’ll start writing instructions for muting on my flap of paper.
