    That’s because the movie streams are encrypted and cannot be watched on third party apps. And even worse, YT is now experimenting with encrypting all the videos… Only reason I know this is because my account was unluckily chosen in an A/B test and I couldn’t watch anything on VacuumTube or SmartTube…

        Oh no that works fine for me too, but it only works because it’s technically the “official” app except it’s just patched. Everything else like the apps made for TVs and such will not work with encrypted streams. I really hope they don’t go through with it. I quite enjoy casting stuff to my steamdeck and second monitors.
