Critical bug: Infinite loading for youtube

[AlexNetman]

• I checked if the issue/feature exists in the v0.17.3

1. Getting infinite loading on youtube Trending page
2. Getting "No results" when trying to search by keyword

Note: Soundcloud and MediaCCC are still working fine in NewPipe.
Note2: SkyTube app has also stop working - videos are searchable but not loading.

Which Version are you using?

[AlexNetman]

I was using v0.17.0 when error happened 3 days ago. Then I updated to v0.17.2 and very soon v.0.17.3 was released.
So far - I am still having that error in v0.17.3

Guys, Any recommendations? Reinstall of latest version have not helped. How to get logs?
It looks like not many other guys have faced the issue yet.

Somehow issue has gone by itself! Both SkyTube and NewPipe players are working fine now.

But if i use menu, then work perfectly

@KonoromiHimaries this is probably because launching the video from the info page causes it to load in 1080p, while going to popup from list causes it to load in 720p, which has no issues with the infinite loading.
