Unknown source error Response code: 403 #3606
Comments
|
Getting the same thing on FireTV stick, no videos are working. |
|
Update: I did two things:
Now the videos are playing normally, even after I disabled YouTube again. I don't know which of the above two steps made the difference. |
|
Yep mine was fine until 5 minutes ago, now every video gives this error, apart from livestreams. (Fire tv 4k) |
|
I just left a video open for half an hour until it started by itself and now they all work again. |
|
Can confirm. Unknown source error 403 on firestick 4k as of today. |
|
Getting the same thing. Seems youtube might of killed the app for now. |
|
Same since 1h or so. Streams working fine. |
|
Having the same issue on latest stable. Rolled back to the previous stable version 21.91 and still seeing issues with this. On FireTV 4k. |
|
Any livestreams selected still work perfectly. |
|
Same issue on Android TV. |
|
Go to Beta Version for the moment. Beta Version has no problem. |
|
Having the same issue on Beta version. |
|
How do we go to beta version? |
|
It's in the description of the github. Sorry for my English cause I'm French. |
Is it the latest ? |
I have the same issue using the version 22.35 Beta (Google TV). |
It's the same I have... Waiting a reply of developper... Can it be a Youtube restriction ? |
|
I'm getting the same problem on the latest beta too. |
Yes |
|
WORKAROUND Close it. |
This workaround works for me too. Thanks! |
This is the answer, it worked on my Nvidia shield pro and stable 22.19. |
Yup, this worked for me on my Nvidea shield! |
|
Warning. When you clear your data, you will also reset all of your preferences. It will also remove any of your sidebar channels that were created. It will be like running SmartTube for the "first time". However, this does fix the "error 403" until an update is released. |
|
Clearing data and cache did not work for me. I simply uninstalled v22.35 and installed v22.19. It now works. I also tried v22.20 beta but that didn't work. This is on a Firestick 4K. |
Probably not, Newpipe still works. I feel like it wouldn't work if it was the case |
|
|
I believe version 22.19 is what I had until I checked for an updated version, which then took me to the most recent version. I can say that on my Fire Stick, both versions threw the 403 error. Maybe that means simply uninstalling and reinstalling would work? I also wonder if those on the later version of SYT could backup your settings to the cloud -- the new setting to save to Google Drive -- and restore those settings after the next SYT update. Either way, I'm not risking the effort I've put into my very specific setup, so I'll happily await the next update. By the way, YT is also throwing up ad blocker blocks in the web version of regular YT. |
|
reboot your system. sounds silly but it worked to me since other players were also failing. |
|
Same here on my main Google TV device, but my other Android devices running SmartTube were not affected. Stopping/updating/rebooting/clearing cache/logging out-in did not work, but clearing all data and settings fixed it. |
|
v22.60 on Shield, just started working again.... |
|
v22.60 seems to be working but still can't login |
|
v22.60 still has 403 error show up but the videos eventually play 🙂 |
I said use the stable version, not the beta version xD |
|
The new beta works for me on android TV 7.0 with default and cronet engines, but not with okhttp, completely opposed to stable version. |
|
Thank you so much for 22.65. Runs error free on my Nvidia Shield Pro 2017. 403 and unplayable issues seem to be resolved on this platform. Thank you! |
|
22.65 working fine at the moment on my shield.. |
|
Just tried a fresh install of 22.67 on my Firestick, still getting the error 403 message when trying to play videos. |
|
(Android TV 7.0, smarttube stable, tunnelled playing disabled) now only cronet is working, the other 2 shows error 403. |
|
If (when) it breaks, try cronet and set preset to 1080p60 with AVC codec. |
|
I was able to solve the issue for myself. I was using an older version of the beta but updated to the newest stable and deleted all of the data and logged in again and it was still saying 403. I tried seeking forward and backwards with the right and left buttons on my remote control once a video was playing and I was getting the 403 error and that got it to think for a moment and then it loaded the actual video and now I'm having no problems whatsoever. This is on a TCL television running Google TV. |
Thanks brother its work for me love you bro ❤️👍 |
|
Looks like every day the network stack which is working changes, at least for me. |
|
22.69 stable is working fine on my friend's Android TV. Not installing 22.74. I shall see if my Nvidia Shield Pro at home is working okay once I get back tomorrow. |
|
Getting the 403 issue now on random videos, not on all of them. v 22.77. (Firestick). Was fine yesterday. |
|
22.69 is also working fine on my Nvidia Shield Pro. I'm not updating until it's properly fixed. |
|
Yup, 22.77 Im getting 403 on Shield. If you just wait a few moments, the error will go away and the video is watchable. |
|
New Fix is Out Smartube V22.79 Hope this was useful to someone ?? |
|
I've just updated the app and it works fine now, Sony TV |
|
Just updated to 22.93, was playing videos fine, half way through one the dreaded '403' error is back. Tried other videos, nothing will play. This is on Firestick. |
|
Die me v81 worked a few days, now 403 is back. |
|
With latest beta, it works again. |
|
I started getting a few 403s, but the videos would play after about 3-4 attempts (just waiting), and I hadn't updated for a while, since it was working with a paid YT account. I did one update, and it still happened, and then the last remaining one and it's fine so far. Odd that it was working fine with a paid account for so long and then played up (without updating). |
|
Had this issue then updated to 22.95, works fine now. Nvidia shield pro 2019 |
|
I've been getting an unknown source error response code 404 with about two weeks and it's always worked after about a minute. This evening it's throwing the 404 (not 403 it hasn't been a 403 error with over two weeks) and I've left it trying to play the videos for a few minutes but it's not succeeding. I have v23.10 of smart tube installed. |
|
@Ralphie32 which version you're using? |
|
I'm using version 23.10. it seems that only a few YouTube videos are throwing the 404 error this evening. Most videos are working but a few completely refuse to play. |
|
the clear data did not work for me. what it did work, was I checked for updates inside the app, and the changelog update said something about 403 errors. I allowed the app to install apps, then updated from the app itself. after that, it plays normally. android 9 and latest update shown today |
|
do not forget to drop it's permissions to install apps after you update it. |
and others
Since this morning I have not been able to play any videos in SmartTube. Instead I get an "Unknown source error Response code: 403" every time I click on a video on the Home screen.
The Home screen looks normal otherwise.
I'm on a Sony TV.
ETA: I've tried restarting TV as well as signing out of SmartTube then back in again, did not help. Problem also persisted after I updated to version 22.35.
Update: Problem seems to have been resolved for at least a couple of us.
