Feature description

Can premium content, which is not playable since a BraveNewPipe user is not logged in, be hidden in the "What's New" and individual channel pages?

I don't know if this is possible (e. g. if it's marked as premium-only in the feeds retrieved from the various providers).

I'm not sure if this is going to be exclusively from the extractor, or if it will require parallel app work. I can see this working with several components:

  1. In the app settings, under Content -> Feeds, have a toggle for "Show premium content" with a default of off.
  2. If this option is off, pass parameters to the extractor so that it will not pull premium content if possible, or will filter it out.
  3. If this option is on, pass parameters to the extractor that will permit the retrieval of premium content and will return it to the app.
  4. The app will then either display or not display premium content from various subscriptions.

Why do you want this feature?

Since BraveNewPipe does not use logins, premium content will never be available through the app. So rather than having it shown to me and being disappointed when it's not playable, I'd rather not see it at all.

Additional information

I think this would be best handled in the extractor since it's the part that more directly communicates with the various services.
