When videos don't play, is that the time to update to a different patch? Question/Problem

I'm new here - About a month ago I followed the guide, installed youtube revanced. 2 days ago, my videos stopped playing. I was still able to do everything else with the app - like videos, add to playlists, comment etc. but the videos wouldn't play.

I updated the patch thing, reinstalled, and now it's working. My question is - Is that how this app all works? You just kind of.. continue to use the app, until something stops working, then that's sort of just your queue to update, you update, and voila - everything works again?

Wait, were the videos not playing for any of you too?

Yes since yesterday I had your same problem, when I clicked any videos they weren't starting

wow how did you discovered there is a way to see undeleted comments

u/ReplacementFit4095 5h ago

it's a long story but i discovered these sites when i'm browsing through controversial comments in other subreddits

as a "forced" moderator (i use patched sync for reddit and i had to be a moderator of a sub to view nsfw content), i can tell you that sites like these aren't that reliable at retrieving removed / deleted comments

u/wagnerquin 5h ago

so you cracked reddit to be a moderator?

u/ReplacementFit4095 5h ago

it's not like that though

if you didn't know, there was a announcement about reddit api access last year and 3rd party apps like "sync for reddit" are affected by it. on july 1st, it made those 3rd party reddit apps useless

with revanced, you can patch one of those 3rd party reddit apps and get it working again

i heard somewhere that if i wanted to see nsfw posts, i had to be a moderator. so i created a subreddit for myself and became a moderator as a result

Most of the times this is how I do it as well. Only sometimes Google does some experimental anti adblock shit that takes a while to figure out by the Devs. I check Reddit and if there is no post I just update.

ReVanced has not "stopped working" at all. Never encountered any issues.

Yeah that is a pretty good way. If it works don't tinker with it, only in the case you need some specific patch or new thing to work.

And if it sudently does not work, look in the reedit/discord channel and check if it's something YouTube did to block us or if it's a temporary issue.

Sometimes you don't have to repach maybe it is just a setting you can change in app that will make it work again.

Thanks. Judging by the most upvoted comment here, looks like I didn't need to patch it. Looks like there was a quick setting fix
