The video returned by YouTube isn't the requested one. (Android client)

[marcogiorgio]

Hi,
When I click on a video to reproduce it, I get the error:

The video returned by YouTube isn't the requested one. (Android client)

This started a couple of days ago. I don't know why..

Smartphone:

• Device: Pixel 6
• OS: Android 14
• Version 1.19.2

It's an issue with invidious.

Ty! I'll follow the issue in the Invidious repo

Seems there's a fix out for invidious, at least something is merged and a new docker image was pushed, but now instead of the app throwing an error, it just does not play

[ThaDaVos]

Nevermind that, it works on my phone (Android 13, Asus ROG Phone 5s) but not on my tablet (Android 7, Shield Tablet K1)

Yeah, seems to be fixed in latest docker image.

[lamarios]

Seems to be fixed, i'll close this ticket.

@lamarios - before creating a new ticket, any idea why the same version of the app works on my phone and not on my tablet?

[lamarios]

Not sure why, That might be a question for invidious. The app didn't change, if it worked before invidious fix and not after it's an issue with invidious.

I figured it out, partially - DASH is non-functional and max-quality I can select is 720p - this wasn't the case before the update and only happens on my Tablet - the thing is, it works through the web interface.

Second thing, when I open a video, it won't auto-play, I have to set the quality for it to start playing now

[ThaDaVos]

Is there any logging/debug I can enable to see what source it picks and stuff?

I'm also having this exact issue right now but I'm using mi box s 4k 2nd gen latest software with dash on and off

Latest version of invidious was released last night to tackle this issue.

If you are running :latest on docker, the go to the invidious folder and:

1. docker compose down to stop the container
2. docker compose pull to grab the version released yesterday
   docker compose up -d Restart the container (detached)

Seems to worsen even - now 360P is the max I can select, but only on one of my devices - on my phone I can use DASH without issues
