Sadly it's not, and navigating around it takes a little bit of getting used to (trying to close a video for example is a somewhat counter intuitive). But I'll take it over adds in youtube. That being said, I used it sparsely, as I don't have much I want to watch there except play the odd song or maybe one or two other videos a week.

For android TV you should use smarttubenext, same as tubular, but with a tv interface.
