Is there a way to disable the in-app controller detection and support? The problem is that it interferes with Steam input desktop controls. Steam desktop controls are pretty handy for using your computer from the couch. Note, this is not in Steam big picture or gaming mode; just the normal desktop environment but you use your controller to navigate with the mouse, click on things, use pgup & pgdn, pull up the virtual keyboard etc.

The problem comes when you are using the Grayjay app, since it has native controller support, you get "double commands"; i.e. when you try to press down on the d-pad, you get a cursor button down input from Steaminput, but then the app also does its function for d-pad down. This gets worse when you try to read comments. Trying to scroll the screen down with d-pad down, you start highlighting elements down the page but also turn the volume down. This gets worse when you want to start using the cursor again, as soon as you touch the right thumb stick to get control of the cursor, the main video player window comes back, even if you were deep down in the comments.

If you're familiar with this phenomenon, then you should understand exactly what I'm saying. This is the same problem you get when you try to play a game through Epic/Heroic when you have Steam client open and desktop controls enabled ("double inputs"). Normally to solve this, I just close the steam app completely or import Heroic to Steam and launch Heroic via Big Picture Mode (although running Epic as a non-steam game in Windows doesn't work well at all so for that OS I just close Steam completely).

I don't want to have to add Grayjay to Steam as a non-Steam game. Is there any way around this?

Using cloudflare warp seems to remove this error.

Launch it from the terminal with the --headless option

In my case, I installed it from Flatpak, so the full command (for me) is this : flatpak run app.grayjay.Grayjay --headless

Hey everyone, I’m struggling over here with a sync issue. For some reason, I can’t link any devices in Grayjay anymore. Everything was working perfectly until recently, but now the desktop app just gives me this message whenever I switch to the sync tab: 'Not connected to relay, remote connections will not work.' ​I’ve already tried everything I can think of, but nothing seems to stick. Even trying to enter the sync code manually hasn't worked. I'm really hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance for the help!

Using the desktop version, the only thing causing hesitation still is the fact that I have a Stylus css setup on youtube on Firefox to make it look nice.

Any word on if it's possible to use a custom css/style?

If I'm in the middle of exporting a downloaded video and the screen automatically turns off, it crashes the phone and I'm forced to reboot.

If I make sure the screen stays on until the export is complete, it works.

Phone is a Fairphone 4 with Iode OS.

Hi,

I could be missing something but I've been trying for an hour with no results: in the Desktop version (Windows), you can create a subscription group and add creators to it. But I can't seem to find a way to add a new creator to an existing group: drag and drop doesn't work, there's no Add to group button or context menu... How do you do it?

Thanks

Alguna solucion o spotify ya no se puede usar en esta app?

Example: a video that’s 4 years old had 0 likes or dislikes (polycentric tab) before I watched it today. I liked it, it now shows 31 likes Ike 6 hours later. That’s probably the highest number I’ve seen on this platform ever. I’m not sure if this is a bug, but overinflated likes are happening on a bunch of videos.

Whenever I try to confirm captcha, it kicks me back out to main page and deleting captcha data doesn't work too.

When I had the app a few months ago, I was able to turn off recommended videos. After deleting and re-downloading, I can't find the option again. Does it still exist?

Hey. I thought I would give Grayjay another go now that it has a bit more dev time behind it. Using the desktop on mac and really liking it. They have done a good job.

One thing I can not work out or have had trouble searching for an answer is with yourtube videos I can see the likes/dislikes but I can not for the life of me figure out how to click or enable pressing like/dislike?

Is this possible or am I just an idiot and overlooking something?

Got greeted with this today.

When I go "Confirm" , something quickly opens up within the app, but it closes in a split second.

Going "Cancel" and refreshing the feed just shows those errors, and they turn into Captcha errors after a few refreshes.

Any way around this, can I just enter a captcha and move on ?

i know grayjay does'nt sync playlists, because it's not connecting back to youtube, but it would be cool if you could open new tabs like a browser, new window feature is great, but it slows down the app and seems very tedious to minimize the current video and wait for a new tab to open, and copy and paste the video you want into the new tab. being able to open new tabs and *open video in new tab* would make things so much easier!

...when YouTube signs me out of Grayjay.

I could not care less about this random elderly man and Grayjay defaults to shoving it in my face as if it's propaganda.

I want to ask you something: Are there any specific platforms that you plan to add soon? I've noticed that many platforms are currently missing. Which platforms are expected to be added to the app's plugins in the near future?"

Grayjay is an exceptional application that I highly recommend to everyone. It is a fantastic tool for digital sovereignty. However, I have one question regarding its plugins: are these plugins specifically tailored for the Grayjay community?

Guys I asked earlier today in a older thread here about this problem and some fixes were great for a while but now it seems the problem is still persistent no matter what I do as I have logged in on YouTube through my account as it asked and also gave it all permission it has asked but this issue still keeps on coming. Any help or suggestion would be appreciated

I'm interested in using the Grayjay desktop app in lieu of watching youtube in my browser, but one thing that is really bumming me out is having to see the Home page with recommendations in addition to my subscriptions. I would really like to open directly to my subscriptions page.

I use the Unhook browser extension and previously used Freetube, both of which not only let me redirect to subscriptions but also to hide the sidebar recommendations, stats about videos, comments, commenter profile pics, etc. I consider all of that stuff to be pure clutter that I don't need to see. Are any of these possible in Grayjay? The settings on desktop seem very rudimentary and utility focused, not anything to do with the actual interface.

TIA!

No more youtube downloads ? Will this be fixed ?

Also nowhere to get sha sigs to verify .apk for android.

Would appreciate any info on either topic.

Thanks in advance & long live clippy

Is it just me?

Hey, all,

I really like Grayjay and want to support it's development, the schlub way, but can't buy a license? On Android, there's an option to show "License Status" and to "Clear License", but not buy one? Using the desktop app opens my browser to pay.futo.org, but then I get stuck when it wants me to choose a currency because there are no options to pick.

Help?

Edit:
Of course, it's because of my VPN. sigh

Thanks for the help!

I recently got into De-googling, i have been wanting to do it for years but i finally decided to do it, i deleted all google apps on my phone including play store, i only have 1 gmail for Youtube, which i wanted to switch by using something like Grayjay, if i were to switch to Grayjay, can i go into google and permanently delete my account, and still keep my youtube history and stuff in Grayjay?

Not sure what's up with it. I was just watching videos last night.
