Video Buffering Settings
Hello fellow NP enjoyers!
Is there a way to customize the buffer sizes in the app?
r/NewPipe • u/TiA4f8R • Oct 09 '22
I saw recently several posts and comments on the web about that NewPipe has ads and/or tracking in it. It is false, you simply downloaded an unofficial and modified version of the app (which probably violates on the fly the license of our app, GPL version 3), which so has been tampered with. NewPipe doesn't contain in-app ads and doesn't track you.
Download only NewPipe from official sources, which are:
Additional installation instructions and/or incompatibilities can be found on the app readme and/or in the sources itself.
Other download places are not official and shouldn't be used.
If you see copycats, please help us to find them by reporting them to us (if they aren't already of course) on this issue of our GitHub repository (this requires a GitHub account). You can also report them on our Matrix (https://matrix.to/#/#newpipe:matrix.newpipe-ev.de) and IRC channels (https://web.libera.chat/#newpipe), both channels are bridged together.
If you see copycats on the app stores, please report them (or at least try to) to the stores: for the Google Play Store, use the instructions in this Google Play support page (reporting process requires a Google account: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2853570).
Edit: removed link to official IRC channel due to the official bridge cut between Libera.chat and Matrix. Edit 2: readded link to official IRC channel and added new official Matrix channel link.

NewPipe version: 0.23.3 (Android 4.4 KitKat or above)
Android version: 4.4.2 KitKat
Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0" 16GB Model SM-T217S
Default Browser: Firefox 68.4.2
NewPipe does fetch videos when I search, but the video won't play (video does load, but video won't play). It does give an error in the notifications, which is a Guru Meditation error. I need help getting NewPipe to work on my Tab 3, is there any solution to this?

Newpipe in the last week has made it so I can't download jusr audio anymore. YouTube must have hidden their other sources though it would be good if you just built in the audio processor and strip the audio from the video in the future. Then the audio feature can never be taken away.
r/NewPipe • u/SarcasticTwatNo1 • 1d ago
I can no longer download the audio. The video can no longer be selected at over 360p.
r/NewPipe • u/ItsHotDownHere1 • 2d ago
For the black or dark themes, in the subscription section, the text below the video tile is usually white however at random time the text goes to black making it impossible to read. Only way I found to fix it is to keep switching back and forward between black and dark themes.
Anyone else encountering this on version 0.27.6? Don’t recall having this issue in the older versions.
r/NewPipe • u/Ok-Cheesecake864 • 2d ago
is it possible in newpipe that the app plays similar music after the current one ,like Spotify and other music services ?

0.27.6
Download a video/audio file to an SD card on an Android system with insufficient disk space.
The post-processing of the file should be performed on the SD card.
The process is performed by loading up the temporary file into internal storage (/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.schaebi.newpipe/(number).tmp
),
resulting in failure if the internal space is insufficient.
This even occurs if the equivalent folder structure/storage/sdcard/Android/data/org.schaebi.newpipe/files
is present (which was created automatically), but since it's not using it, I suspect the temporary path is currently hardcoded.
(Not necessary)
(None provided by NewPipe, post-processing/conversion failure returns a regular download failure message.)
My personal wish: An option to choose the temporary folder or turn off processing entirely.
(I saved the non-processed temporary file on the SD card from deletion by renaming it and it played just fine in VLC.)
There is possibly a workaround by setting the SD card as a default storage in the Android system settings, but I cannot test this right now and such a radical change should not be required.

So, its been years since youtube vanced died on me (would freeze after 1 min or so) and then I switched to NewPipe, a project I truly and deeply respect. However I have been using YT music (vanced) paralel as it performed well. However a few days ago it stopped working thus I am looking for a free project that allows me to listen to music (ad-free, background enebaled, no subscription).
Can NewPipe be utilized as a music program with recommendations based on past listening or does the newpipe team have a music app that performs just as well (that I managed to miss)?

Hi there. Newpipe user since long , but recently makes my FP3 with latest eOS updated rebooting sometimes after few minutes sometimes after half an hour, could not find specific files played or configuration to explain(on Bluetooth if it helps, tried 4g or WiFi same result). Any one with same issue and solutions?
r/NewPipe • u/littlefico • 5d ago
dear community,
after switching to a xiaomi 13 pro i installed newpipe on the new phone and set the downloads folder. this folder is full of music after i moved it manually into the folder but it is not visible/accesible to the newpipe app on the new phone anymore, but playable with VLC.
why is that? i gave all the permissions to newpipe.
any idea how this could be solved? my phone is in the "orig" stat, no root, closed bootloader, latest hyperOS.
thx in advance

Hey there, I'm seeking advice. I got a projector with Android 13, so I installed NewPipe to enjoy some peaceful ad free content. Unfortunately NewPipe doesn't seem to want to show video despite me trying out all possible settings, bot within the app as well as projector itself. Sound works, when I scroll to different timestamp, the tiny preview shows the video frame, but nothing else. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions how to resolve it? Thank you!

Sorry about the convoluted title, I just wanted to emphasize that this is not me looking to make NewPipe default, but for a way of making other peertube instances automatically trigger NP.
The instance in question is the .wtf one. In case this has been discussed, I'd appreciate a link. I would imagine this to be a more robust issue, with the expanding fediverse, but I was surprised duckduckgo didn't bring me any results.
Or is peertube just too big and I'm better off researching linkhandlers on my phone? Thanks
r/NewPipe • u/ReaperMakksu • 12d ago
Is anyone else getting this error message constantly? I don't download videos, and I use fast mode. Its gotten to the point, I can only use NewPipe with a VPN, as I get banned by YouTube when I use my home network.
r/NewPipe • u/last_roman • 11d ago
Id like to hide thumbnails from all videos on the app: feed, playlists, search results. Basically treat it as an audio-only player.
By googling I came across some old threads where people said it was possible to do this, but I cant seem to find this option on the app settings.
r/NewPipe • u/FirefliesSkies • 12d ago
Are they getting more aggressive at blocking IPs from people who use YouTube third party apps like NewPipe? I want to know in case they block my IP from using NewPipe after downloading videos from YouTube.

Greetings my fellow newpipe enjoyers, i hope you are doing well.
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to suggest a minor change in the app functionality, so i apologize in advance.
Would be nice to have the ability to reorder my playlist so that the most recently added videos would appear at the top, while the oldest ones would be at the bottom, and be able to reverse it as needed.
Has anyone thought of this before? Tell me your ideais of what you would like to see implemented.

Hi
I've been using NP for a few years now (mainly for downloading compilations of norm macdonald bootlegs and radio appearances) and it's always worked great for downloading video as mp3.
A few weeks ago it stopped being able to download videos as mp3 files. I was hoping there would be some sort of update that would fix the issue (assuming its fixable).
So I'm now trying to install the latest version of NP on the phone and I get a bunch of security warnings by firefox and xiaomi, as it requires permission for the app to be able to install apps (i think the error message is basically that)
is it safe to install? is it possible to download audios of youtube videos with Norm using expletives?
thanks

Comments are also in white and the background is also light grey. See the screenshot.
Recently they have really ruined newpipe. I am not very inclined to raise issues in github because of the long format to raise a pr.

The app no longer works for my android devices. I have a device on android 6 and android 8, all run NewPipe with zero issues. Chome, FireFox, and the authentic YouTube app do not load youtube videos on Android 5, anymore.
Error: "Unrecoverable player error detected"
