Affected version

0.27.2

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. create a playlist with music videos
  2. use it for months (some videos will have disappeared from YT over time; not sure if that's relevant)
  3. start playing in the background
  4. listen to a several videos in a row

Expected behavior

The playlist is played until the end, one video after another.

Actual behavior

After a seemingly random number of videos played back without issue, playback fails at the beginning of the next video and every subsequent video after that one fails to play, same error.

Screenshots/Screen recordings

No response

Logs

No response

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

Android 11

Affected device model

Samsung A70

Additional information

When this happens (and it seems non-deterministic, but happens once per day, maybe), NewPipe remains stuck in this state and remains unable to play any videos. I need to force-kill it and after that it plays videos correctly that a moment before would cause errors.
