3.0.0: Error when retrieving info of a video with several dub tracks via Android client.

[wukko]

Steps to reproduce

import { Innertube } from 'youtubei.js';

const yt = await Innertube.create();
let info = await yt.getBasicInfo('TJ2ifmkGGus', 'ANDROID');

Video in code sample has several audio tracks. Any such video causes this error.

Expected behavior

I expected to get video info along with all possible dubs, just like what WEB client returns.

Current behavior

InnerTube throws an error and doesn't provide any video info if the video in question has several dub tracks.

Version

Default

Anything else?

Updating the Android app version here would probably fix this issue, as error suggests.

uhh it works now?? i guess this was temporary, but i couldn't get it to work a few hours ago. that's weird

[wukko]

okay, this same exact error just occurred again. same video, same code, and it doesn't happen 100% of the time.

[wukko]

truly no idea what this is caused by, so this specific issue is irrelevant

[LuanRT]

See iv-org/invidious#3290.

The library sends all parameters required by the Android client, except the specific user agent, which is likely what's causing the issue here.

Reopening this until #318 is live. Thanks for reporting!

Just released v3.1.0, but I'm not sure if this is fixed yet (can't be reproduced in my region). So please do test it if you can.
