This commits fixes extraction of the function name decoding the n parameter for
HTML5 clients' streaming URLs for YouTube base JavaScript player 3400486c.
Two new regexes have been added to the existing ones. All regexes and what they
extract has been documented.
- Fix typo in folder name of DescriptionTestPewdiepie test;
- Fix constant usage of DownloaderTestImpl as download implementation for
UnlistedTest and CCLicensed tests.
These changes work around an anti-bot token, for which its requirement is A/B
tested on the WEB client. In this test, streaming URLs of this client return
HTTP errors 403 if the token is not provided after some time.
It also allows to not fetch the JavaScript player for non-age restricted
videos, reducing data usage.
The TVHTML5 embed client is now only fetched in the case of age-restricted
videos.
The methods forceFetchAndroidClient and forceFetchIosClient of
YoutubeStreamExtractor have been removed, as they are now not needed anymore.
These changes also break the extraction of appropriate error states for private
and deleted videos and invalid video IDs.
Previously, if no URL was provided due to the track being a preorder or
unpaid track that doesn't have its own public page, we would catenate
the artist URL and null to a nonsensical string.
This invalid URL would also be used to try fetching a thumbnail URL.
The downstream behavior of the NewPipe client is only marginally
improved, as it now no longer throws visible exceptions due to the
missing thumbnails, but still gives an unfriendly error upon clicking
the item that has a `null` URL.
YouTube now returns a Shorts tab for InteractiveTabbedHeader gaming channels,
which contains Shorts about the game of the topic channel but are not uploaded
on the game topic channel.
As this tab is already supported by the extractor, fetching a gaming topic
channel now returns a tab instead of none.
Channel name and channel URL of these Shorts needs to be set to null in a
separate commit, as Shorts on this tab do not have the topic channel as their
uploader.
The new action data can return multiple contact actions instead of only one,
which will be concatenated by a new line return.
This commit fixes tests of the CrisisResources test class of
YoutubeSearchExtractorTest.
YouTube disabled the effectiveness of the parameters which were used (the
player response we get redirects to another video), but new parameters which
work around Android's client integrity checks have been found.
The API keys are not used anymore by official clients in almost all cases
(still used by the Android app until it gets a configuration) for all requests
we made.
Clients and device OS versions have been bumped to their latest stable version
known.
Methods and fields related to API keys have been renamed or deleted if they're
no longer relevant.
