Could you please provide screenshots or write down the exact message?

windowsfan6 commented 2 weeks ago

Works fine now, probably a temporary bug. If it will happen again, then I will post the screenshot.

windowsfan6 commented 2 days ago

Okay, so it happened the 2nd time. Basically, it also drops to Invidious API and says that video is "unavailable" until next launch of video. Isn't the age restriction prompt for some reason appiled to unavailable vids as well?

I'm unable to provide a screen since it happens literally randomly.
