Please fix (or improve the handling of) the "Redditp booboo TypeError" bug #173

Pretty much everytime I use redditp, I get this bug. Whenever it occurs, the website stops working and I have to reload the tab to get any response. Isn't it possible to make it so I can just skip the media/post that could not load correctly, so I can keep browsing without having to reload the tab?

edit: both times it happened to me today, the posts that redditp could not load were cross-posts (example). Maybe this information can be useful, should anyone decide to look into this issue.

I see that things are being updated. The booboo popup no longer shows, but redditp still freezes whenever it's supposed to show media from a cross-post. It would be good if it didn't freeze, regardless if the problematic media gets shown or not.

I thought the recent deploy would fix this but it seems it didn't

I'll have to take another look

Oh, my bad. I didn't specify that I've been mostly having problems with crosspost videos. Testing it today, I noticed that redditp showed the first image of a crosspost image gallery and didn't freeze, so the recent deploy works. But it still freezes with crosspost videos.

Example: https://redditp.com/r/MadeMeSmile/comments/1dovs4p/long_live_the_dancing_man/

This video is currently post number 12 on https://redditp.com/r/MadeMeSmile/ and when you try to change from post 11 to post 12, it loads the post title and urls, but the media shown doesn't update and the site freezes.
