Does anyone know how hard it would be to implement background playback to YouTube Music. I recently got the app and honestly the free verison has everything you need expect that it doesn't play when the screen is on or without the app in the main thread. This is similar to what YouTube is so hopefully the solution can be implemented the same.

YouTube AdAway
YouTube Background Playback (works extremely well!)
Xposed Additions (for advanced custom button remapping)





AdAway is definitely the cause of the problem. Follow these steps to fix the issue.
1. Open AdAway
2. Disable Ad Blocking
3. Close and Reopen OGYouTube
4. Videos should now show in your "Watch" history
5. Open AdAway
6. Open Menu > Log DNS Requests
7. Tap "TCPDUMP Is Not Running"
8. Play another video in OGYouTube
9. Tap "TCPDUMP IS Running" in AdAway to stop the process
10. Tap "Open Log File"
11. Examine the domains captured in the log and add those you think are linked to YouTube to your White List in AdAway
12. Check for new hosts in AdAway, download and install
13. Close and reopen OGYouTube
14. Play a video and see if it shows in the "Watch" history
15. Add more domains to AdAway's White List until the "Watch" history functions properly in OGYouTube

I have tried everything. Including uninstalling adaway, reinstalling ogyoutube, and doing a factory reset. I still can't see videos that I watch on ogyoutube. Could it be that I'm using the non root version?

Youtube with AdAway

I have tried everything. Including uninstalling adaway, reinstalling ogyoutube, and doing a factory reset. I still can't see videos that I watch on ogyoutube. Could it be that I'm using the non root version?
You should try to add in white lists on AdAway this sites:
Code:
s.youtube.com
s2.youtube.com
and even
Code:
*.youtube.com
After addition apply AdAway again and maybe restart, I do not remember.
Please give feedback after this. Good luck!

I have tried everything. I even added other entries to my whitelist that were recommended. I even replaced my youtube app with ogyoutube, but nothing. It has something to do with the ogyoutube app, because I have tried other YouTube mods, such as YouTube Adaway, and YouTube Vanced, and my watch history works with those apps, but I prefer ogyoutube because I like the swipe to seek feature, but if I can't get my watched history fixed, I'll have to look for an alternative to ogyoutube.

Which version of ogyoutube allows you to swipe and seek? One day it suddenly stopped working on my tablet and phone. Re-enabling the option and reinstalling the app didnt fix it. I have tried every possible version of ogyoutube out there but swipe to seek never worked again. I dont like the other option where u double tap and it jumps forward a few seconds.

Hey...
I keep getting a nag-screen for an update. If I tap update, it just opens the play store with nothing there, which I understand, because I side loaded. Is there any way to turn it off?

Is OG-YT still being worked on?

News about OGMod developer ? Where is? Dead? :(
twitter page is also abbandoned.
Well, the original guy was from Syria then think it was picked up by somebody else but they recieved a cease and desist order last I heard. I do believe that is where the "stopped" deal in the title comes from. Just look at the last time it was updated. 2017.5.11 at least that's the last date listed here.
