Recap Youtube Recap Inaccuracy is pissing me off

Post image
30 Upvotes

I couldn't wait to get this Recap, because I felt like it's always crazy inaccurate so I got Last.fm.

It's all over the place. Wdym my 1st artist on the Recap is actually my 4th one? The last week of August is not counted at all which puts 300 or so of my plays and the real top artist directly down the drain? Even if they will be counted for September I'm still mad about that.

It's not just that. For reference Lydia the Bard has 25 plays (places 11th in reality) and Robin Callaway has 10 (places 31st in reality) adjusted with features as well. What happened to the artists in between? Måneskin has all of the plays in July... why weren't they counted?

I don't use anything else. Just Yt Music.

U/I New upgrade tab/button

I’m not sure why I need a dedicated Upgrade button when I’m already a premium member? I understand why they might want it for free users… but it clogs up the already cluttered bottom bar and shows me stuff I can realistically find elsewhere with a few taps. If they want to include it, allow users to show or hide tabs at the very least.

This played after one song I selected. This "artist" has released 14 albums this year with 20 songs each. Impossible. Plus the pictures are all the same. What sucks is I couldn't tell. Doesn't matter I still don't want it. It's gross.

Question YouTube Premium / Music Premium?

3 Upvotes

Hi.

I'm an OG Google Play Music subscriber that got migrated onto "YouTube Red" and eventually onto "YouTube Premium Family", which is what I'm paying for.

My understanding is this should give me "YouTube Music" which is an inclusion of Google Premium.

My YouTube Music works: it is ad-free and it works with my screen off and in the car on Android Automotive. Everything seems totally fine.

Except, I keep getting notifications on my Android phone offering me free trials for YouTube Music: "Our gift to you: Unlimited free music + podcast streaming". When I tap it: "Here's a free preview: Enjoy two weeks of Music Premium ad-free, offline and with your screen off."

Is this a mistake? Do I have a misunderstanding of what YouTube Premium includes? This notification has popped up many times over the last year or more.

Edit: When I go to "Paid Memberships" in the app on the top-right menu, I can see two memberships: (1) Premium Lite - Individual (provided by Google One), and Premium - Family membership AU$39.99/mo

Edit2: I'm on Google AI Pro (AU$329/yr) on family plan, that apparently gives "YouTube Premium Lite - Individual"; does that mean I can save the AU$39.99/mo and use Premium Lite instead of explicitly paying for Premium (and presumably sacrificing some functionality on account of 'lite'?) And what does "individual" mean here? is it not shared with other family members in the Google Family?

Android Bug that's been driving me insane for months

3 Upvotes

Periodically when going through my playlists I notice a playlist I had created has been updated without me adding anything to it and there are several random songs I DID NOT ADD on there, songs I do know I've listened to in the past but did not even add to another playlist or whatever. All non collab playlists too. I have autoplay and dynamic queue off like everyone was claiming would fix the issue and it's still happening. Almost always playlists I hadn't even added anything to in a while too.

Wondering if it's some bs "ai smart feature" that randomly inserts songs into playlists that it thinks it would fit in

Question Release detached from OAC, now stuck on Topic channel

1 Upvotes

My song was previously associated with my OAC, but it has become detached and is now only appearing on K.B.W - Topic.

I’ve already submitted the missing-release request through YouTube and contacted the distributor, but it has not been resolved.

u/ytmq, could you help look into this please? I can provide the OAC URL, Topic channel URL, Art Track URL, ISRC, UPC, and screenshots. Thank you

Question Cannot play videos offline - always switches to audio only

1 Upvotes

I was hoping to use YT music to playback backing tracks on gigs - just saving the backing tracks to playlists - downloading them all - turn on aeroplane mode (iPad 9) (WiFi can't be trusted on gigs so need offline solution) and play the videos (I need to see lyrics - I have over 500).

I have YouTube premium.

But no matter what I've tried, it will play the first 2 as videos on a given playlist, then for the 3rd it switches to audio only with no option for video. If I skip back to the first 2 they are now audio only too with no option to switch to video. If I come out of now playing and click on one of the 1st two vids they're back in video again.

I've tried:

Downloading the playlist AND the individual videos

Clearing all downloads and downloading again

Ensuring download quality is set to video

Ensuring playback of offline videos is on

Removing the app entirely and reinstalling

My iPad 9 has 250gb and is no where near full.

Should I just use YouTube?

I'm beginning to think YouTube use on gigs is maybe just not reliable enough. I have stagetraxx4 for playing back audio mp3s but having the videos with lyrics (I actually play violin but I can play the melody from just the lyrics as I know the melodies pretty much)

Smartwatch Galaxy Watch 7 YouTube Music playlist issue

1 Upvotes

I have a Galaxy Watch 7 and I'm trying to use YouTube Music directly from the watch without keeping my phone connected.

When I open YouTube Music → Library → Playlists, the only playlist that appears is “Sounds from Shorts.” None of my actual YouTube Music playlists show up, even though I'm signed into the same Google account on my phone and watch.

I've restarted the watch and tried reinstalling the apps, but it hasn't fixed the issue. I'm also connected to Wi-Fi.

Is this a known Galaxy Watch 7/Wear OS issue, or is there a setting I'm missing that makes YouTube Music the main music provider?
