Description of the issue:

Since the last update of the Brave browsers I encounter the following problem: YouTube videos only load very briefly and then break off. The following Errormessage is shown: “Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Aktualisiere die Seite oder versuche es später noch einmal.”

I tried everything i could find in the forum, but nothing worked out so far. So i would be very thankful for some help with this issue.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open Braver Browser
  2. goto m.youtube.com
  3. try to play a video

Expected result:

Video loads briefly, then stops loading. Error messages occurs.

Brave Version( check About Brave):

1,73,91, Chromium 131.0.66778.85

Mobile Device details

Galaxy S23 Ultra

I use Brave Browser (iOS) and the Brave Browser Private Browsing Only mode. I set the Brave Browser Settings to be conservative.

And then use Brave Shields to make necessary site-specific changes.
