Bug description

When a duration filter is set to hide videos from the feed that are shorter than a specified duration, videos shorter than the duration will only have their thumbnails hidden.

In the screenshot of the home feed below, I have it set that all videos shorter than 25 minutes should be hidden.

No response

Solution

No response

Additional context

On the bright side, this behavior can be utilized by users who want to hide video thumbnails (although it doesn't work in related videos ofc)

As Google has recently made a lot of changes to the server-side components, the filter is now pretty broken

Before the server-side changes, we could get information about the duration of the video anywhere in the layout, which corresponds to the red rectangle (thumbnail + video info panel)

After the server-side changes, we can only get information about the duration of the video from the blue rectangle, the thumbnail

That is, after the server-side changes, we can no longer get information about the duration of the video from the video info panel

I don't think it's possible to fix this

Until a better way is found, the Duration filter will be removed from the settings
