My setup is not exactly the same setup as yours but I am seeing similar issues, my config is:

1. A Samsung Tab 10.1 TM-580 running stock Oreo 8.1 (4th March 2019)

2. TWRP installed

3. Rooted with Magisk 18.1 (the latest release)

4. Lots of stock garbage removed

5. Official Play YouTube app removed

a. An attempt to install YouTube Vanced via Magisk Manager in Android (published as v14.06.54) results in an installed module that has no launcher

b. An attempt to install YouTube Vanced 13.12.60 downloaded from https://youtubevanced.com/magisk via a TWRP zip file flash results in an installed module that has no launcher

c. If I install YouTube Vanced 13.12.60 downloaded from https://youtubevanced.com/magisk via a TWRP flash (result == no launcher) and then follow that with an install of YouTube Vanced via Magisk Manager in Android (published as v14.06.54), I eventually get a version installed that actually has a launcher that does work.

It looks like there's something slightly amiss in the available installable options at the moment, if I had to guess I'd say it's probably Oreo 8.1 related.

If I'm playing anything in background with this app, every now and then it gets closed. Sometimes I'll play a song and after maybe 30 seconds the app closes. Other times it's fine.

It doesn't crash? because if I open the app then it continues where it was.

Any settings I need to change? Pixel 2.

hi guys, look at the picture, do you have the same problem too?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
If you enabled swipe for volume and brightness, then it is normal. You cant have both swipe control and swipe to see videos. Just make the video horizontal and find those videos below or disable swipe for brightness/volume control.

Your android version? Works here with no problem on pie, latest non root vyt 14.06.54

Probably battery optimization (disable it for vanced from settings/apps/advanced/special app access/battery optimizations)

Or else;

Log the event (closing of youtube vanced in background play) up. Use matlog if you are rooted or adb logs of you are unrooted

Try stock youtube and see what is the notification color. You should either report it to YouTube team (youtube red) or Samsung. I dont think youtube vanced changes anything in stock YouTube notification. I guess samsung just flips the theme of the apps notification. So in that case YouTube needs to prepare a dark theme color for its notification

Some issues on the background playing while the screen is off

When I listen to a playlist in YT, I switch off the screen and continue listen, but when the 1st song finished, it will not automatically play the next song in the playlist as long as I did not switch on my device. And also, when i was on my home screen, I couldn't configure the video playing with the shortcut key in the notification bar, hope that these issues can be fixed asap (I'm using Samsung Galaxy Tab S2)

[Android Apps and Games] AndrzejDwo:
Hi again, I think I have found a bug. In previous root version 14.06.54 while hitting the back button YTV was minimalized into the notification panel, and when hitting home button it went into PIP mode. Now it's going into PIP mode both using back and home button. When it's in PIP mode and I hit settings the screen goes black, locked and YTV is minimalized into notification panel. Any suggestions?

Cheers

Edit:

Forgot to mention - Samsung SM-G950F Hades Pie rom 4.1, latest YTV root version
[Android Apps and Games] RYU810:
yeah stretch because newpipe have it but i don't like use it because youtube vanced much better.

Maybe you should actually read my post before trying to talk smack. I don't have a problem with casting to devices in general, I have a problem with casting to devices that are in another VLAN.

[Android Apps and Games] Gspin96:
Hi guys,

sorry to resurrect the chromecast issue ting, i've just been doing some searching around on this and yes, i did read a few previous posts and replies from the developers.

Well, not all of them, it was quite a long and sparse discussion, but i've read the ones saying it's about microG not supporting cast api v2, and not getting that support because its development has been dead for 2 years.

If, as i think, the used part of the microG project is the GmsCore, then the latest release published on github is actually 6 months old, numbered 2.6 as opposed to the 2.4 provided for Vanced.

I see that Vanced has its own modded version so just installing that on my phone wouldn't work, and i couldn't find a repository for the patched microG, so i don't actually know if updating microG to that "new" version would really do it.

Probably not, i guess the Vanced devs knew where to find the microG repo and had already checked.

In that case, this side project of microG might be interesting to look into though.

If the readme doesn't lie, it should use the already installed Play Services if present, which should solve the issue (at least for those who have Play Services).

Anyhow, thank y'all to the devs, hope i've been somewhat helpful :)
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
That's a little bit deceiving regarding the version numbering. For the most part the version numbers are just bumped up to trick Google apps into thinking that you have the latest Google framework so they'll work without telling you that you need to update Google frameworks. At least that's my understanding of it. There's still quite a bit missing and it's only getting more outdated. I'm using a microg setup with the rom I'm using now and there's fewer Google apps that work with it now than there was 6 months ago. The google apps that I've tried anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] ikuinenluuseripaska:
I'm really liking the Youtube Vanced app, I'm currently using White/Blue, but I'm wondering if it would be possible to get White but with black texts? I know that White/Dark has it but I don't like the app icon, I very much prefer default Youtube app icon.
[Android Apps and Games] Gspin96:
Thanks for clarifying that.

Do you know if the GmsLib project could solve that hough, since it's supposed to rely on an existin installation of Play Services?

Still, its last commit is even older. We'd probably need an hero to adopt poor microG or replace it :(
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
Casting issue still present on newest build. At this point most can assume there's no fix in the pipeline short of rooting, unless I'm wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
a fix is a bit difficult because the issue is with 3rd party software that isn't being maintained anymore.(microG)

[Android Apps and Games] Jungle_jon:
How would I find which permission it needs ?
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
Generally speaking it goes like this:

folders permission = rwxr-xr-x or 0755

File permission = rw-r-r or 0644

If you are using RootExplorer you can long click on the YouTube folder, press the 3 dot menu at the top right, and select permission.

Then set the parent folder (the YouTube folder) to rwxr-xr-x then at the bottom of the permission pop up you'll see two options. Click the <also set on sub folders and files> option and the <don't execute on child files> option. That will automatically set the sub folders to rwxr-xr-x and the (child) files won't execute, meaning that they won't get the x's (x is for execute) leaving you with the proper rw-r-r permission for those.

Attached a screenshot to give a better idea. Just select the same options then reboot and you're good to go.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:

I think the center or bottom of the video should have swipe disabled, so that the suggested videos can still be accessed by its swipe. Horizontal swiping for scrubbing would be neat too. Other than that, perfect stuff
[Android Apps and Games] Gotas10:
The application is giving me problems recently. Every time I put a video and at the same time I'm using Google Chrome, Youtube Vanced closes, the video stops playing. I do not know if Chrome now consumes more resources than before and that is why the application is closed or that YT Vanced is presenting problems.

This also happened with Spotify (cracked), but then I installed a newer version and Spotify no longer closes.
[Android Apps and Games] anuraganasane:
Everything seems to work fine here with pip. I can see video n use chrome simultaneously with no issues. Try to wipe cache of your phone or reinstall vanced and then wipe cache again.
[Android Apps and Games] Maru1:
Do you know where I could find them to contact them? A new version would be great, one for the chromecast issue and two for the older issue of not saving history using a youtube brand account. It seems improbable, because they haven't updated for years, but maybe I'll give it a try still.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Sorry, I don't know.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
They have been/he has been (I guess it's just one guy?) aware about the chromecast thing for years already. Now you will ask "How is that possible? It only broke a few months ago?". It's because chromecast devices only recently removed support for the old API and it's the new API which MicroG never supported. But if what I heard is correct, the MicroG dev is back and will continue developing it.

Anyways, the brand account history seems to be working in 14.10.53, since Google did something.
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
I haven't used chrome in a little while but that used to happen to me if I had I tab opened to YouTube. For instance, I would get redirected to the YouTube webpage from a link and then decide to open that link in the app the app would then force close until I closed the tab in chrome. But that's the only time I had a force close from the app while using chrome. Not sure if that's your situation, just thought I'd share just in case.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

Just to add to what razerman said, the microg dev mar-v-in does look like he's back in action. Here's the link to the issue tracker on his github page regarding the Chromecast problem. You'll notice that the issue was opened 3yrs ago but if you scroll all the way down to the bottom you'll see that he replied 19 days ago saying that he'll start testing on some of the proposed fixes.
[Android Apps and Games] Maru1:
I just tested it, it doesn't work with the brand account saving the history. So this would've to be fixed too next to the Chromecast issue.

It's good to hear though that the developer will continue to work on it and fix these issues.

Is the bug for the non working history saving on brand account known?
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
A silly request but would it be possible to add an option to prevent the player interface from appearing when taking a screenshot in full screen?

History not showing for brand accounts has been marked closed (solved). According to the github comments you just need to clear user data for microg and you're good to go.

Apparently this doesn't fix the issue of YouTube needing to be whitelisted for those using an ad blocker and not having history show.

So I downloaded the rooted APK, renamed it to base.apk (to match the existing YouTube APK). Set the permission just like your picture. It kinda works before I restart, but afterwards it tries to install the APK (which will of course fail).

I'm missing a step, I know but I don't know what that step is.

YouTube is not a system app on this device but a user app.

I am trying to install it on an Amazon Fire HD 10, which is a forked android 5.1.

I didn't create a folder, I just used the YouTube folder, I will try creating a folder and naming it YouTube.

YouTube isn't a system app on this device, you have to install it, so it's just a user app.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
you could try to uninstall the official app completely, and then install the root version of vanced as a regular apk.

the reason root is required is because it's usually not possible to replace the base YouTube apk, but it might work if it's just a user app.
[Android Apps and Games] Jungle_jon:
Trying to run the APK, just start the installer which always fails.

I can not get this to work. steps i have tried;

1. Download https://youtubevanced.com/root (currently White/Black 14.06.54 arm64, but I have tried arm7)

2.Created a folders in /data/app/ called "com.youtubevanced-1", "com.vanced.android.youtube-1". I have also tried creating these in /system/app.

3.Then copying the downloaded APK in to this folder, and setting the permissions on the folder & file, as per here i have tried renaming the APK aswell, "base", "youtube".

4. Then try starting the APK either by creating a shortcut in root explorer or directly from the APK and it wants to run the installer.

It's the last step i'm getting wrong as I tried to run another app, that has been installed normally, directly from it's apk (in/data/app/) and it wanted to install that as well.
