MY ISSUE: STOP REPORTING AND RESPONDING TO THE 403 ERROR! #3650

Open TiredOfKak opened 3 months ago

TiredOfKak commented 3 months ago

Apologies if I step on toes... but my issue is this: STOP REPORTING AND RESPONDING TO THE 403 ERROR!

If you do not know by now that the issue is linked to YT cracking down on 3rd party apps, you may have a gap in your reading skills and/or patience. No doubt the developer is trying hard to find a workaround. Let him be, and watch the ads until it is (hopefully) resolved.

Like you, I cannot imagine a future without this app - unless YT charges me a reasonable amount. Like $1,00 or $2,00. It may well bring in another billion and allow YT developers to focus on making YT as cool as this app.

Rather buy the developer a cup of coffee. If not now, when it is resolved.

Just my two cents ;)

Stable and beta versions can also be played with the latest update. I really appreciate it! (Sorry if the text is not correct as it is a translation)

It seems 22.38 fixes this for me. Good work, @yuliskov :-) I will head straight to the donations page as a little "thank you" for all the good work put into this awesome software! I recommend others do the same!

Or just get a 30 day trial for premium untill it's fully fixed if you want 4K

I can confirm version 22.38 works for both TV and phone. I know it's hard to make it works. Thanks dev for your big effort

For the last 2 days, July 8,9 2024, I had the same errors as others in this string, Source Error 403. I had gone as far as to uninstall and reinstall on 2 FireTV Devices yesterday to no avail. Today, I turned on the TV, loaded the SmartTube app, tested and it failed again. I went to settings, selected the update and attempted to update, but the 2nd Gen FireTV Cube indicated that I had to give the "unknown app" permission to install at which point the FireTV admin app opened where all of the apps are listed. I scrolled down to the SmartTube app and toggled the Off to ON to allow the app to install and went back to the SmartTube application where it now allowed me to install the Version 22.38 update. Following the update, I restarted the application and now both recorded YouTube videos as well as live stream video is working perfectly. Thanks for fixing this problem. YouTube is really pretty much unwatchable without SmartTube!
