The video count is now returned for this playlist, so it isn't unknown.
The testStreamCount method of this test class asserts now that the stream count
is greater than 40.
This new layout doesn't provide author thumbnails and is completely different
for metadata, so the code to get them has been refactored.
The code of learning playlists video count check has been also removed, as it
seems to be not relevant anymore (the video count seems to be returned for
these playlists with both layouts).
Finally, unneeded overrides of subchannel methods, which don't apply to the
YouTube service, have been removed.
Using the player parameters used to get stories seems to fix the issue, which
affects currently only certain countries such as UK.
This is a workaround and should be fixed in a better way (by changing the
InnerTube additional client used for videos or finding what is now required in
Android player requests).
Use the same possible characters for variables everywhere, in order to avoid
potential future throttling parameter decryption function name parsing issues
related to the usage of other letter(s) than b.
- Quote the function name, as it may contain special regex symbols, such as
dollar;
- Support multiple lines;
- Use what looks like the end of the function for the end of the regex (this
part is inspired from yt-dlp throttling parameter decryption regex);
- Move the throttling function body regex into a private and static constant.
This new structure allow us to filter easily Trending shorts and Recently
trending sections.
On the previous one, this Recently trending section is now filtered, by
checking whether sections have a title, which isn't the case for normal trends
contrary to the other ones.
This makes that the extractor returns now only the real 50 "Now" YouTube
trends.
Elements inside arrays are now extracted dynamically instead of only the ones
of the first index, using Java 8's Stream API.
The getInitialPage() method of YoutubeTrendingExtractor can now throw a
ParsingException if no selected tab (corresponding to the one of the trends
type extracted) has been found.
Finally, the licence header has been moved to the top of the file and updated.
In the new data model currently A/B tested or deployed, the like count button
data is the same, but its path has been changed.
The extraction of the like count has been also improved, by using the multiple
accessibility data available instead of the only one which was used before.
This accessibility data has been also deprioritized, because it is language
dependent when there is no view.
Like count is always known, even for age-restricted videos, so returning -1 if
the like count extraction fails on this type of videos is not needed and hides
an extraction error: that's the reason why this return has been removed and the
exception will always be thrown, even if a video is age-restricted.
