Subscriptions Never Update

[xrizonx]

Hi,

Running latest dev and stable release. On the stable cannot subscribe to any channels as it reverts on page refresh. On dev can subscribe but get the following issue via CMD

[ViewTube] Info 8/13/2023, 9:00:00 AM Starting subscriptions job 4 at 2023-08-13 09:00:00.177Z - {}
[ViewTube] Info 8/13/2023, 9:00:00 AM Subscriptions job: 0% done - {}
[ViewTube] Info 8/13/2023, 9:00:01 AM Done at 2023-08-13 09:00:01.560Z: 0 channels, 0 videos - {}

Is there currently a patch or work around for this? besides that its working well no buffer on playback. Also i see Your Profile page is also broken not tracking watch history only plays and time watched.

Thanks

Hi, subscriptions are fixed now.

maybe I misunderstood the "subscription" category, but in my case I see history/watched videos instead of the newest videos from subscribed channels. That is, after fresh install (before watching anything) subscription on home page is empty (no videos) although I added multiple channels to my subscriptions. Any hints?

Any known workarounds for this issue?
In my case a fresh install behaves exactly as in @ewoks last comment.

I hope this is considered high-priority, because it's affecting viewtube.io, and making it somewhat useless for daily watching.
I actually like the user experience of ViewTube a lot more than the alternatives, so it's a shame to see such an important feature broken.

In my experience, the Subscriptions page and homepage only update if you manually visit your subscribed channels (one-by-one) and then return to them.

not sure if in the meantime it was worked on it, however I setup viewtube today from scratch (reasons) and added few subscriptions, videos from those appear in correct section soon after. I will observe this further on

The problem is, on viewtube.io there are a lot of subscriptions, so it's a challenge to fetch them all

[ewoks]

I just created account on viewtube.io, added subscription no1, went back to the home page and subscription section is filled with last 4 videos as expected. Added another subscription, it works again as expected (4 videos from both channels are displayed and sorted by the most recent).

Side note: @moisout not quite sure how your last comment fit into the ticket context. Basically you show in this list just 4 videos for now (at least what I see in multiple tests). Steps should be along these lines:

1. get list of all subscriptions for the user
2. if no of channels/subs > 4 fetch just last video from each channel, otherwise fetch last 4 videos from each channel. Corner case, if there are a lot of subscription (>50), you choose random 10 channels and their last videos until we come up with something better
3. sort by publish date
4. display top 4

I believe this is how it works at the moment (more or less).

From my point of view this ticket can be closed as solved.
p.s. there is another bug 2792 I just discovered related to unsubscribe and I will open another ticket for it.
