    Something not quite right in the selection of BBC catchup programs. In the first screenshot below I tried selecting the latest Wallace and Grommet video from "Most Popular" the 2nd screenshot shows the result which contains related videos but not the one I selected. Doing the same via A-Z gives exactly the same result so I have not been able to find and play this and other items shown in the selection menues via OLV. The video is available and I can select and play it from the BBC Iplayer via my browser.

    YouTube stopped working for me a few days ago. I am getting "Timeout getting playback urls for video". Anybody else?

    The logs are attached.
    There are 2 problems:
    • the internal YT client used to get video links doesn't work for some reason. At this point we need http dump(by using Fiddler) to see what is going wrong.
    • if the internal clients fails, then ytdlp is used as backup to get the video links (it takes more time though). The plugin checks for latest version and then downloads it from git. In your case it takes a bit longer, causing OV to abort the operation. Try to increase "Webrequests" timeout in OV configuration (default is 15s) to 30s or more.
    EDIT: the problem with the IOS client could be in PO token (ytdlp)
