Google Pixels Are Crashing After Watching This “Alien” Clip on YouTube
- brucethemoose2 4y agoI am afk, but I kinda want to download the 4K formats and inspect them. My money is on screwed up HDR metadata... especially since its not a original HDR source. There is so much that can go horribly wrong. My 2nd bet would be on some AV1 encoding bug.
- zoklet-enjoyer 4y agoWow! It crashed my Pixel 7 immediately. Less than a second after the video played. It was really weird because it was the quickest my phone ever rebooted.
- bertylicious 4y agoDoes it also crash when you search for the clip in the YouTube app instead of using the link?
- zoklet-enjoyer 4y agoOddly, no. It's only when I opened it from the link. I went into the YouTube app and searched MbdVuStrEV8. I opened the video and had no issue. I downloaded f-droid and then NewPipe and watched it on there too with no issues.
- netsharc 4y agoNewPipe[1] plays it just fine on my Pixel 7. [1] https://newpipe.net https://newpipe.net
- monstertank 4y agoIt plays fine in most videos embedded in an app, including chrome and Firefox, however in Fullscreen on YouTube app...crash+reset
- monstertank 4y agoI'm on pixel 6 pro also.
- monstertank 4y agoAlso happens in vertical mode non maximized video
- polishdude20 4y agoWorks fine on my pixel 5 full screen YouTube player.
