Created attachment 166809 [details] video versions of songs in queue after clicking Play from an album page SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** When playing songs which exist both as YTM songs and YT videos, how the user initiates playback should be honoured. For example, if you click the Play button in an album then it should play the album / YTM versions of those songs. Instead, it plays the video / YT versions for applicable songs including intro and outro sections specifically added to the videos which don't exist on the album tracks. Many music videos include extra content at the start or end of a song, sometimes in the middle, to to make the story being told by the footage more coherent, but which don't make sense within the album as a whole. Napalm Records, specifically, add an explosion sound with their logo at the start of each music video. This ruins the listening experience for a lot of albums with songs that transition from one to the next, and is not consistent with the behaviour of listening via actual YouTube Music. This only seems to be an issue when playing albums. Selecting the offending songs from the "songs" group in search results does not play the video versions. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. find an album that contains songs which have official music videos on YouTube 2. click the Play button from the album 3. check the queue to see video thumbnails on some songs 4. if the music video versions of the songs contain different audio than the album tracks, you will hear it OBSERVED RESULT Plays video versions of songs from album pages which add extra audio not on the album and which is inconsistent with YTM behaviour. EXPECTED RESULT Play album versions of tracks unless explicitly clicking on video entries in search results, on an artist page, etc. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro 6.7.7-1 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
