Packet Filter help

I was wonderingif anyone can help me setup a packet filter to block PlayOn software from automatically forcing an update. I used PlayOn software for streaming video and TV show. I know there IP address. How would I setup a packet filter that would prevent PlayOn from forcing version update and still allow my PC to receive streaming?

Thank You

If you know the domain name(s) or IPs of their update servers, you could create packetfilter or proxy rules to block them.

I only know the host name playon.tv. I tried creating a PF to block the host and it shows the packet being dropped, but the program still receiving the latest updates.

Any other suggestions
