Brave isn‘t downloading Videos to the playlists anymore properly

Summary

So I’ve looked around and saw that several tickets (here, here, here, here, here and here) have been created for this issue.
The fundamental issue that all of us are facing, is that we cannot add new media to the brave playlist on IOS.


Reading through this Ticket, I’ve found also some confusing statements which should be clarified. For example:

This is not true:

  • The ticket I had opened then was for a similar issue, but it has been fixed already (see message marked as solution there).
  • There I stated that a temporary fix is: To “Request Desktop site” from YouTube you can add the media to brave playlist. (that works now too btw (only on YouTube though). Meaning: if you @Juneepearl for example need a fix before a possible update; read this - it works for me now)
  • The workaround is using private mode - That does not work for me now. (and that is also not what I had said would work in the ticket referenced.) This works (on all websites with media)


Anyway. Getting back to the “fundamental issue”. We cannot add media to the playlist without getting this nice error:


That also affects us in the way that we cannot save it for offline browsing.

That’s all I have to say for now. If you find a fix or have a question, please respond to this thread.
