After refreshing the page 1-3 times the error is gone.

Win10/Powershell 7.3.4/youtube-local-v2.8.0-windows Not entirely sure if my problem is the same as yours but refreshing also helps on my end. Here's the traceback:

500 Uncaught exception:

Seems to require refreshing a significant amount of time (more than 5 times) before the player comes up.

@stl3 That line of code shouldn't activate unless you enabled the gather_googlevideo_domains hidden setting. I recommend disabling that
