How to block streaming sites and exclude Youtube

Hello there,

 

I want to block streaming sites but I have to exclude Youtube. I have just tried it with "Web Rating Overrides" and added youtube.com. Now Youtube is reachable but video content is still blocked.

 

And Amazon Video service is working, because Amazon URL category is shopping. Is it possible to block only URL path "/PrimeVideo" ?

 

Thanks a lot.
