:warning: Known issues/regressions which are not fixed with this update :warning:

DO NOT OPEN NEW ISSUES FOR THEM BUT FOLLOW THE LINKED ONES INSTEAD!

• Player notification actions set from app player notification settings are not used on Android 13 and above: this is related to targeting Android 13/API 33 or higher: apps cannot completely personalize media notifications: see #9764 for more details.
• Crash when playing content in fullscreen on some devices: our usage of the ExoPlayer library does not correctly handle rendering to a different surface than the starting one and crashes when trying to switch to fullscreen. See #9023 for more details and workarounds.
• [YouTube] Trends are not shown sometimes and No videos are shown in this case: YouTube is A/B testing a new trends UI which completely reworks what data is sent and how it is displayed. This new structure is currently not supported by the extractor. See TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1046 for more details.
