Okay, since this is kind of on topic I want to ask a question. I patched YouTube with ReVanced Manager for my girlfriend. I’ve unchecked the patch that hides the cast button in the player, yet it’s gone anyways! To cast to TV, you have to go into the settings. What can I do with this?

Si ce we are on topic, is there a way to have DeArrow on mobile? (potentially I could install it on FF, but would prefer an app for YT).

[–] Shards@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Firefox nightly has all the usual extentions (ublock, sponsor block, and yt enhanced) so these days I just use that (with NP for downloads)

[–] loom_in_essence@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I did but more and more videos don't play anymore.

[–] Azeon@feddit.nl 3 points 1 year ago

YT changed something in their backend, there's a new patch (client spoofing) available that fixes it. You'll have to re-patch your youtube APK.

No, i only use Newpipe Sponsorblock

[–] trimmerfrost@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yes the Revanced YouTube Music app

[–] kzhe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I use LibreTube.

[–] LanyrdSkynrd@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Yes.

Also xManager, a similar tool for Spotify. I'd use revanced for YTmusic, but most people seem to use Spotify and it's nice to be able to share playlists with friends.

ReVanced extended through Revancify

[–] lol@lemy.lol 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

All the time. At this point I'm waiting to replace my second hand iPad with an Android tablet so I can achieve a truly optimal YT experience.

[–] wason@lemmy.ninja 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You can sideload uYou or uYou+ on the iPad

I have reVanced but unfortunately I struggle with getting it to work consistently. Most commonly, the video will play for a minute or so and then buffer endlessly. My Internet research tells me the only way to fix it is to root my device, and I'm honestly not willing to go that far. Luckily I have adblock installed on my phone, so the official app is tolerable.

The other replier is right. I have the same issue every few months and all I have to do is download the recommended YouTube APK & reinstall revanced with the default patches.

Had this issue again 3 days ago and it fixed it. Just be sure you are patching the APK you downloaded and not the original YouTube app. That caused the patching to fail the first few times till I noticed.

yes :) but i should use newpipe

[–] Bloodwoodsrisen@lemmy.tf 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd love to continue using it but I've had issues with videos getting stuck in endless loading. So I have both revanced and the normal app installed

[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been having a similar problem the last couple days, can't seem to find a solution yet however.
