feat(YouTube Music): Rename `Spoof player parameter` patch to `Fix playback` patch

[inotia00]

Application

YouTube Music

Feature description

This is not a feature request, but a description of the feature that will be introduce in the next release.

According to a previously reported issue, the Spoof player parameter patch no longer works for some users.

As a workaround, the Spoof client patch was added in the last dev release.

I had planned to also add the Spoof video streams patch, but having three patches with the same purpose could be confusing to users.

For this reason, the Spoof client and Spoof video streams patches will be integrated into the Fix playback patch.

Each patch can be added or removed via the patch option:

Note

Spoof client

I: TRUE
Default value: TRUE

Side effect:
• Action buttons or player flyout menus may not show properly.
• These side effects may be resolved by clearing the app data and logging in again.

Side effect (Block request):
• App may be forced to close when using a VPN or DNS.

Spoof video streams

Default value: TRUE

Side effect:
• App may be forced to close when using a DNS or VPN.
• Audio may intermittently stutter during playback on adaptive bitrate streaming clients.

Each patch option works regardless of the YouTube Music version, but check the side effects and select the patch option that best suits your needs.

If you still see a response code of 400, you need to turn off Spoof client and turn on Spoof video streams, See: #3128 (comment)

Just wanna ask has this been implemented on the latest pre-release?
https://github.com/inotia00/revanced-patches/releases/tag/v5.9.1-dev.4 I wanna test it out because spoofplayer parameter is broken in my RVX music

Due to a server-side change yesterday, the Spoof player parameters patch no longer works for all users.

The Spoof player parameters patch option can now be removed without any issues.

Instead, Spoof client will be used by default.

For the same reason, I'm currently fixing the side effects of Spoof client.

The side effects of the spoof client will be as follows (5.9.1-dev.5+):

Note

Side effects:
• Action buttons may always be hidden in YouTube Music 7.17+.
• Player flyout menu may not display properly.
• These side effects may be resolved by clearing the app data and logging in again.

The side effects are still valid, but clearing the app data and logging in again will resolve all side effects of the Spoof client.

@inotia00 Is this 1 minute playback stop issue resolved in ReVanced Manager Plus's RVX Music Extended? I can not see any update in the ReVanced Manager.

[ExoAis]

Alright. The issue is resolved now. Reinstalling the RVX Music Extended did the trick. Now I have Spoof Client enabled

The issue resolved for me too.

Any idea when the side effects will be resolved?

You can find it by searching in Github issues: #3100 (comment).

@inotia00 Can you help me locate Spoof Video Streams in RVX Music Extended? I can't seem to find it there. There's only Spoof Client.
