Additional information

This started around the same time when Sub list stopped updating, suddenly no video can play and I didn't update new pipe from I believe 0.23.1 it was - as it sometimes required to update for things to start work again, I updated to 0.24.0 and things stood the same. Also I tried 0.24.1 test - and same thing happens.

@krablord It's not. Why do you think so?

[krablord]

@opusforlife2 I was lead to believe in private email from I assume moderator(?). I don't want to spam with duplicate issues and make it harder to track issues.

[opusforlife2]

Mods don't send private emails. Please report who this person was. And in future make sure you confirm that a person with the "Member" or "Collaborator" tag has provided you the information before assuming that it is from the team.

[krablord]

I was sent replies to my thread that I don't see on github, so I assumed it was from the team and those messages are just not visible. Where can I report something like that? I cant find anything about it

[opusforlife2]

Sent on email? Yeah, if you're unsure, report these to Github. There's a "Contact Github" link in the footer.

[krablord]

Exactly the same way I got notifications (notifications@github.com) about comments right now on specified email, I got same notifications but they are not visible in this topic.
Thank you - will do that.

[opusforlife2]

If you're willing to share the username of this person, we could see if anything can be done from our end.

[krablord]

I got comment from Deek Pramana about closing issue - hope that helps.

[opusforlife2]

No, that doesn't ring any bells. Oh well, Github Support should be much more helpful.

[opusforlife2]

You can follow #9329 meanwhile, BTW. See if the steps are right.

[krablord]

can confirm - works in portrait mode with 0.24.1 and errors with fullscreen
