Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe library requires a YouTube TV account and device pairing; it does not work with standard YouTube accounts.

fix

Ensure you have a YouTube TV (TV-connected) account and have paired a device using the pyytlounge library.

affects: all

breakingVersion 2.0.0 introduced breaking changes: replaced synchronous API with async, changed class names and method signatures.

fix

Upgrade to >=2.0.0 and rewrite code to use async/await; import from isponsorblocktv instead of the old module.

affects: <2.0.0 vs >=2.0.0

deprecatedThe 'set_auto_play_mode' method was removed in v2.5.0.

fix

Use 'auto_play_mode' property instead.

affects: >=2.5.0

gotchaMinimum Python version is 3.9; running on 3.8 or earlier will fail.

fix

Upgrade Python to 3.9+.

affects: >=2.3.0,<3.9
