Low quality thumbnails #196

Open Deadinsidee3 opened 1 month ago

Deadinsidee3 commented 1 month ago

I installed the application using dev manager on PC, everything went well, the only problem I have is that the YouTube thumbnails on the TV look very low quality, is there any way to fix this?

I tried reinstalling and it's still the same.

This happens due to the YT client/server thinking that the device running YT TV client is old and slow. The User-Agent needs to be spoofed.

How can I do that?

You'd have to compile the app yourself and change this line: https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos/blob/cacdf6cfaf2d2fe2f4c708cf6891586169701ce6/assets/appinfo.json#L17

But how old is your TV, which model is it?

Thanks for replying, my TV is

LG 65UM7100PSA. webOS 4.5 05.40.45.

What user agent would you recommend me?
