Web-scrobbler: Youtube Scrobbling Ignores Categories

Created on 5 Jun 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: web-scrobbler/web-scrobbler

Describe the bug
It seems like YouTube doesn't show the categories anymore, and that is breaking the category filtering.

How to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Ensure "Scrobble videos from "Music" category" is checked
  2. Play YouTube Videos
  3. Watch Watch Web Scrobbler try to scrobble non music categories

Expected behavior
Only Youtube Videos in the 'Music' category should be scrobbled

Debug logs
I couldn't actually click on the 'Debug' on firefox :/

Environment

  • OS: Linux
  • Browser: Firefox
  • Extension version: 2.32.2

Additional context
I don't know how web scrobbler gets the category, but from looking back at previous issues, it seems like it reads the description, which youtube must have removed recently.

It's still possible to find it, in a
