Additional information

[opusforlife2]

Tried restarting?

[Cajogu1]

Of cause. Even my phone. No effect

[opusforlife2]

You could check if you've blocked any particular domains that could be related to loading from YT.

[Kannibalenleiche]

I have the same error, also in Germany. It does not matter if I am on cellular data or WiFi, the problem persists. First occurred a few hours ago.

[Cajogu1]

Thank god I'm not the only one. It appears to only be in Germany.

[opusforlife2]

If you could try a VPN or something to change the country YT sees, that would help pinpoint Germany as actually being the reason.

[Cajogu1]

I'll try that. Thx

[ZybanX]

I think it's YouTube server problem because it's having problem with YouTube SSL/TLS certificate or the compatibility from you and YouTube servers

[Cajogu1]

Ah. Thank you Edit: so how to fix this issue

[ZybanX]

Ah. Thank you Edit: so how to fix this issue

Well I don't know but let me see what I can do

[ZybanX]

@Cajogu1 try select your country on Newpipe by going to Settings > Content > Default Content Country and select your country, the restart Newpipe. I think that should work.

[Cajogu1]

I‘ll try that. Thanks in advance.

[Cajogu1]

I tried it. Did not work. I used a vpn and then it works. Without its dead silence

[opusforlife2]

Thanks, so this is specific to Germany, then.

[Cajogu1]

Hope they fix it in the future. For now lets leave this thread active, so the devs at some point may find and fix it. Stay active please. Regards Cajogu
