It seems YT started another attempt at blocking alternative clients. They changed something in their API and both SmartTube and Tubular (NewPipe fork) are completely broken. Apparently it started happening this past week, but we personally just felt it today.

Edit: SmartTube already has an update but still not working for 4K videos it seems. Tubular still not working but it might be due to the upstream (NewPipe) is still working on a fix.

Tubular is also broken for me. Had to switch to RVX YT.

pipe-viewer 0.5.1 with yt-dlp 2024.03.10 still working flawlessly on my end. Maybe I shouldn't be saying that because Google will come for that next :(
