# A/B-Tests
|
|
|
|
When YouTube introduces a new feature, it does so gradually. When a user creates a new
|
|
session, YouTube decided randomly which new features should be enabled.
|
|
|
|
YouTube sessions are identified by the visitor data cookie. This cookie is sent with
|
|
every API request using the `context.client.visitor_data` JSON parameter. It is also
|
|
returned in the `responseContext.visitorData` response parameter and stored as the
|
|
`__SECURE-YEC` cookie.
|
|
|
|
By sending the same visitor data cookie, A/B tests can be reproduced, which is important
|
|
for testing alternative YouTube clients.
|
|
|
|
This page lists all A/B tests that were encountered while maintaining the RustyPipe
|
|
client.
|
|
|
|
**Impact rating:**
|
|
|
|
The impact ratings shows how much effort it takes to adapt alternative YouTube clients
|
|
to the new feature.
|
|
|
|
- 🟢 **Low** Minor incompatibility (e.g. parameter name change)
|
|
- 🟡 **Medium** Extensive changes to the response data model OR removal of parameters
|
|
- 🔴 **High** Changes to the functionality of YouTube that will require API changes for
|
|
alternative clients
|
|
|
|
**Status:**
|
|
|
|
- Discontinued (0%)
|
|
- Experimental (<3%)
|
|
- Common (>3%)
|
|
- Frequent (>40%)
|
|
- Stabilized (100%)
|
|
|
|
If you want to check how often these A/B tests occur, you can use the `codegen` tool
|
|
with the following command: `rustypipe-codegen ab-test <id>`.

YouTube shows internal links (channels, videos, playlists) in the video description as
|
|
buttons with the YouTube icon. To accomplish this, they completely changed the
|
|
underlying data model.
|
|
|
|
The new format uses a string with the entire plaintext content along with a list of
|
|
`"commandRuns"` which include the link data and the position of the links within the
|
|
text.
|
|
|
|
Note that the position and length parameter refer to the number of UTF-16 characters. If
|
|
you are implementing this in a language which does not use UTF-16 as its internal string
|
|
representation, you have to iterate over the unicode codepoints and keep track of the
|
|
UTF-16 index seperately.

## [2] 3-tab channel layout
|
|
|
|
- **Announced:** 15.09.2022, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czIyqEC4V-s
|
|
- **Encountered on:** 11.10.2022

|
|
- **Endpoint:** browse (channel videos)

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
YouTube changed their channel page layout, putting livestreams and short videos into
|
|
separate tabs.
|
|
|
|
Fetching the videos page now only returns a subset of a channel's videos. To get all
|
|
videos from a channel, you would have to run up to 3 queries.
|
|
|
|
Even though it has its disadvantages, the RSS feed is now probably the best way for
|
|
keeping track of a channel's new uploads.
|
|
|
|
Additionally the channel tab response model was slightly changed, now using a
|
|
`"RichGridRenderer"`. Short videos also have their own data models
|
|
(`"reelItemRenderer"`).

## [3] Channel handles in search results

|
- **Impact:** 🟡 Medium
|
|
- **Endpoint:** search
|
|
- **Status:** Stabilized
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Instead of subscriber count / video count, a channel item from the search result now
|
|
displays the channel handle and the subscriber count. The video count was removed.
|
|
|
|
The implementation looks pretty quick and dirty, as they did not even bother to rename
|
|
their response parameters. So this might change again in the future.
|
|
|
|
Note that channels without handles still use the old data model, even on the same page.

YouTube moved the list of trending videos from the main _trending_ page to a separate

tab (Videos).
|
|
|
|
The video tab is fetched with the params `4gIOGgxtb3N0X3BvcHVsYXI%3D`.
|
|
|
|
This new tab contains two shelves (video lists), the first one labeled "Trending videos"
|
|
which contains the regular trends and the second one named "Recently trending".
|
|
|

The data model for the video shelves did not change.

|
|
|
|
YouTube merged the 2 sections for singles and albums on artist pages together. Now there
|
|
is only a _Top Releases_ section.
|
|
|
|
YouTube also changed the way the full discography page is fetched, surprisingly making
|
|
it easier for alternative clients. The discography page now has its own content ID in
|
|
the format of `MPAD<channel id>` (Music Page Artist Discography). This page can be
|
|
fetched with a regular browse request without requiring parameters to be parsed or a
|
|
visitor data cookie to be set, as it was the case with the old system.

## [8] Track playback count in search results and artist views

YouTube added the track playback count to search results and top artist tracks. In

## [9] Playlists for Shorts

- **Impact:** 🟡 Medium

|
- **Status:** Stabilized
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Original issue: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor/issues/10774
|
|
|
|
YouTube added a filter system for playlists, allowing users to only see shorts/full
|
|
videos.
|
|
|
|
When shorts filter is enabled or when there are only shorts in a playlist, YouTube
|
|
return shorts UI elements instead of standard video ones, the ones that are also used
|
|
for shorts shelves in searches and suggestions and shorts in the corresponding channel
|
|
tab.
|
|
|
|
Since the reel items dont include upload date information you can circumvent this new UI
|
|
by using the mobile client. But that may change in the future.

## [10] Channel About modal

|
|
|
|
|
|
YouTube replaced the _About_ channel tab with a modal. This changes the way additional
|
|
channel metadata has to be fetched.
|
|
|
|
The new modal uses a continuation request with a token which can be easily generated.
|
|
Attempts to fetch the old about tab with the A/B test enabled will lead to a redirect to
|
|
the main tab.

YouTube introduced a new data model for channel headers, based on a
