Additional information

I have tried to change the audio track from M4A to WEBM format, but no change.

[opusforlife2]

And this didn't occur on 0.26.1?

[bw4518]

I don't know, its a 'new' device that got in my hands. I could test it, but I reported it since NewPipe should support it from Android 5+.

[opusforlife2]

Still need to know if it happens on 0.26.1.

[bw4518]

Yes, tested it today, the same error on 0.26.1.

[opusforlife2]

Could you try downloading the video and playing it with https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.brouken.player/ ? This is also an Exoplayer based app.

[bw4518]

I did try it. Probably the same error.

AudioTrack init failed 0 Config(48000, 12, 48000) Format(2, null, null, audio/
raw, null, -1, en, [-1, -1, -1.0, null], [2, 48000])

Then this is a bug with your device. There's nothing Newpipe can do about it, being Exoplayer-based. You could investigate using other custom ROMs.
