getting this error most of the time... Is anything broken with new update?

This happens when YouTube blocks or rate limits your IP address to prevent bot activity.

Same problem. I came here hoping to see why I'm getting "unavailable" for so many videos now.

Same here

The update is out and it works as good as new!

This is a good time to remind folks how important it is to donate to projects like this. Thank you, NewPipeTeam!
