Please confirm which commit you've tested. There have been a lot of changes recently around stream fetching (due to YouTube's changes) so I just want to be sure.

[Cookiemonster75]

I am on commit 415.

[toasterofbread]

What do you mean by 415? Could you provide a commit hash or link?

[Cookiemonster75]

I thought it was maybe my storage access but I cleared app data and reinstalled.

Sorry if I sound a bit silly. https://github.com/toasterofbread/spmp/actions/runs/12333875235

Yeah same to me

[toasterofbread]

This is an ongoing issue caused by YouTube constantly changing their API and making it harder for third-party clients to stream audio. There's currently no consistent solution I know of, and even if I did it probably wouldn't work in a few weeks.

Potential workaround:

1. Make sure you're using the latest nightly build on the main branch
2. If that doesn't work out of the box, switch the song stream method to NewPipe and/or enable stream method fallbacks
3. If that doesn't work and you're signed in to YTM, try signing out and restarting the app, and use the Youtubei stream method

Will keep this issue open.
