Known issue

[YouTube] Shorts and livestreams (including VODs) of most channels are not available in videos listed in channels, due to the separation of them into separate tabs. This issue could be solved only when channel tabs will be implemented.

However, you can use workarounds for now:

• For feeds, use the dedicated method to fetch them (a.k.a. RSS feeds);
• For channels: you can use the uploads playlist of a channel to get all its public videos: take a channel ID (not a username or a handle), replace UC by UU at the beginning of the ID and use the resulting ID as a playlist ID (append this ID to a playlist URL like https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list= and then open this URL in NewPipe).

v1.9.4

feat: support of open NicoNico play list via URL
fix: crash in certain situations related to full screen

v1.9.3

fix: crash when using search filter and then use full screen
