Solution

fix info card visibility

[LisoUseInAIKyrios]

I cannot reproduce, and info cards do not show up for those videos.

It might be an a/b test for a different implementation of info cards.

To confirm if it is an a/b test, try these steps and see if the issue is fixed:

• turn on incognito mode
• use a different YouTube account
• turn on app spoofing

[daveout]

Yep they don't show up when in incognito mode. (both with app signature spoofing turned on and off).

[LisoUseInAIKyrios]

Then it's an a/b test.

Signature spoofing wont fix it.

You can try turning on app spoofing (under Settings -> Layout), and that might fix it.
If you don't want an old UI, you can add an 18.x custom target using the instructions here

It worked perfectly. Thank you so much!

So i was about to create a new issue as i experienced the same thing before i found this one. The component name is apparently info_card_teaser_overlay.eml
Blocking that seems to do the job.

Yes but it blocks also the related video panel when you swipe up in landscape

Post the log statement that shows info_card_teaser_overlay.eml for the info cards, and the log statement for the related video panel.

I think I've found the component name to block only info cards.

info_card_teaser_overlay.eml-js-canary

But what is the entire log string? The hide info cards patch can make additional specific checks that custom filter cannot.

I'm not so experienced with revanced development, but I can leave here the logs.

These are the logs when an infocard appears (no custom filtered):
