I got it. It is working sometimes (not everytime), so I will still open this issue; please have a look for me.

I get the same error, but with the iOS client on getChannel

@llsc12 Most of the library only supports the WEB client, the iOS one is only there so you can use it with getBasicInfo. See #555 for more information.

@kms0219kms Could you please provide some examples of playlist IDs that don't work for you?

This was intermittent, and happened with almost every playlist.

I tried with these playlists:
