That exact song is properly loading and working for me on the latest development version. None of the commits since the last release changed anything about how songs are loaded from remote sources. I would suggest going to %AppData%/Roaming/nuclear/logs and checking if there is any error log and in case there is one uploading it here.

Hi, Here is the error log you asked for:

[19/03/2020-23:15:0]renderer > Error while searching for rak-su Dimelo - X Factor Recording on Youtube
[19/03/2020-23:15:0]renderer > [object Object]
[19/03/2020-23:15:23]renderer > The audio playback can not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.

I managed to reproduce the issue partially. When I specifically select the YouTube plugin to search for songs then that specific song will take over a minute to finally find the proper metadata. Using the Invidious plugin the song loads within seconds.

Probably related to these issues:
fent/node-ytdl-core#523
mps-youtube/yewtube#1063

The default api key for youtube doesn't work anymore. We should be using Invidious from now on, I guess.

Invidious seems to have difficulties with geoblocked content. See https://github.com/omarroth/invidious/wiki/Geoblocking,-available-video-quality-and-DASH#geoblocking
and iv-org/invidious#92

Unfortunatey the issue is still open. Adding &local=true query parameter in their website seems to work for my cases, however, I'm not sure it's a good fix to this problem.

Then, I tried using my own API key for YouTube but it still wouldn't work, the error is same as the log output at #676 (comment) line 1

Does the YouTube plugin work at all at the moment?

I'm reworking the metadata searching and stream finding a little, and the program will communicate a little better what's going on.

I'll also add a setting to automatically search for alternate streams if there are any 403s in the way.
