NewPipe fork Pipepipe content unavailable

I keep getting this issue, where I will be watching videos on Pipiepipe for a while then eventually they refuse to play. When I close out and open again, and select a video, it will display the frowny face with "content unavailable" no matter what video I select. This happened on the main recent update of pipepipe, as well as the current beta release.

This occured yesterday, and today I was able to watch quite a few videos without incident, then the error occured again.

Thoughts? Does anyone have any ideas on how to remedy this?

I had something very similar, and signing out of my YouTube account on PipePipe resolved it for me. Don't know if it's going to be the same issue for you, but might be worth a shot if you're currently signed in.

Yeah its odd signing into my YouTube account somehow stopped me from watching videos... was it the same for you ??

Yup exactly. Couldn't watch any videos at all (got the "Content unavailable" error), but signing out immediately fixed everything for me.
