1.I could successfully saved long video in my playlist, and I could watch it online. But when I tried to play it offline, it doesn’t work.
2.
3.

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave):

1.28 (21.7.9.13)

Additional Information:
short videos (less than 15mins) were ok with offline.
it is more than 3hrs video, so the length might cause some trouble.

would you be ok sharing a link to the video you added to playlist?
That will help us reproducing the issue

Must be Video specific, just tested with a random Video. Although I did notice that the “Time left” counter in the bottom right “disregards” full hours, e.g. when I have a 3h5m long video and am at the start it says -05:00 when it should say -03:05:00.

I talked to an engineer who worked on this, he said sometimes videos are encrypted, making it unable to play offline, and sometimes Apple’s api does not even throw an error indicating that.

While we did a good job supporting most video sites, some of them are still blocked by iOS internals
