When switching from YouTube straight to other app using dock or app manager, PiP freezes and/or speeds up.

iOS 14.2, iPad Pro 11 inch 2nd generation, taurine 1.0.4, youpip 1.5.7

Sometimes this happens when going to the Home Screen too though I'm not entirely sure why. Seems to be more reproducible when just switching apps.

[reticivis-net]

Fixed with the "PiP sample buffer hack" option. I highly reccomend you move the tweak options out of the YouTube app and into settings where they normally are so people can find them easier. At least mention it on the package page.

1. Sample Buffer Hack doesn't always solve the issue for everyone
2. I will update package depiction later to mention about that hack

[reticivis-net]

Yeah I started having the issue again after I closed this so I'll just reopen this in the hope a permanent solution is found

[NguyenASang]

@PoomSmart Any better solution for this error ?

[PoomSmart]

@NguyenASang Nothing at the moment.

[NguyenASang]

@PoomSmart Can you reopen it as it's still not fully fixed.

[reticivis-net]

Can confirm that I've been experiencing this issue for a while now. Sample buffer hack doesn't appear to have any affect. Still on iOS 14.3

@HexCodeFFF Does this happen when you enable pip with the pip button?

[reticivis-net]

No, I'm not able to easily reproduce it with the pip button. Like I said in the main issue, it seems to be an issue that occurs when enabling pip as you switch apps

[NguyenASang]

@HexCodeFFF You mean sometimes it happens when you use pip button but when using auto pip it always happens ?

[reticivis-net]

It never happens with the pip button and sometimes happens with auto pip. Seemingly when you switch directly to another app the bug occurs and will keep occurring on new videos until you restart the app

[NguyenASang]

@HexCodeFFF I think this happened with the "Auto pip" code. @PoomSmart Can you rewrite that code ? Maybe rewrite it can help you to find the bug code.

[reticivis-net]

If I had to guess what was going on, it seems that switching to another app or otherwise exiting YouTube right as pip has to trigger confuses it and possibly sets youtube into a mode where it's buffering video as fast as possible since it thinks it's only background playing audio. Maybe look into interrupting YouTube's exit to make sure it's properly set up for pip. Maybe ask udevs how they got Bakgrunnur working?

This is all just a guess and it could be wrong

[NguyenASang]

@HexCodeFFF yes, I don't understand this program language so I can't be sure how it works, for now we can only hope @PoomSmart can fix this.

[PoomSmart]

I myself are stuck at this also. If I had any updates then you would see an announcement. No precise ETA.

[NguyenASang]

Hope this bug can be fixed soon :D

[NguyenASang]

@PoomSmart How does Auto PiP work? Detect swipe up gesture? Hmmm Does that error happen with the iPhone or only iPad ?

[reticivis-net]

Likely works on app exit event or adapts YouTube to work for the already existing PiP in iOS

I haven't tested it on iPhone especially cause native pip for iPhone is an experimental YouTube feature so there might be code to make it work there

[NguyenASang]

@HexCodeFFF Can you test it on iPhone? If my thinking is correct, the problem does not occur with the iPhone (I'm wrong :// )

[reticivis-net]

I reproduced the glitch on iPhone. You have to tap on a notification while a video is playing.

@HexCodeFFF This problem I think caused by suddenly switch to another app. Does the code support this case @PoomSmart ?

[reticivis-net]

Update: the glitch happened while using the pip button :/

[NguyenASang]

Weird moment :// We stuck here :|

[NguyenASang]

@PoomSmart So, we can't find what part of the code is causing that error ?

[PoomSmart]

I'm writing this message to remind you of the message I replied here 15 days ago. Bugging in this thread will do no good.

[PoomSmart]

The only workaround is to use Legacy PiP, I couldn't find a way to resolve this - and I don't know any iOS 14 devices anymore.
