Current Behavior
Whenever I try to click play any video on my Linux (Ubuntu) machine, the application crashes immediately.
Environment Details:
YouTube Music Desktop App 2.0.0
Electron 28.2.0
Linux 5.15.0-92-generic
Name: Error
Message: connect ECONNREFUSED 172.217.23.118:443
Cause: Unknown
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 172.217.23.118:443
at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as incomplete] (node:net:1555:16)
I'm sitting behind a corporate proxy, but it doesn't block YouTube itself in a regular browser. Also previous 1.X version of ytmdesktop worked for me.
PS: The Copy to Clipboard and Exit doesn't copy anything to the clipboard at all for me. I had to type the error message manually :(
Expected Behavior
Video should start playing normally

- Open the application
- Click on any video to play it
- Application shows error popup

BTW I'm running the version from https://github.com/ytmdesktop/ytmdesktop/actions/runs/7688358807 , to overcome #1247
Do you have Notifications on for each track playing?
the IP shared is a Google LLC hosted IP~ so this sounds like something of Google being blocked.
I also run on a Corp network and have a few things blocked like Google's Analytic pages but I don't crash from it 😅
Worth seeing what Domains are blocked when you run YTM in a Web browser when you play a track.
Yes, I had notifications enabled, without that, it works, at least for a few minutes. Thanks for the hint for a workaround!
Regarding the blocked domains, some Google services are blocked here (e.g., Google Meet), but I don't see any blocked domains while opening YouTube Music in the browser in Firefox console. I can see only some 401s while it tries to send a POST request to https://play.google.com/log?format=json&hasfast=true&authuser=0. But AFAIK a corporate proxy shouldn't cause that. I can access play.google.com from a browser without any obvious issues.
Can I check that you tried to play a song and that you only got a 401 from the play.google.com/log ?
We call to the https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/ which some networks have blocked previously for me even randomly.
But that's the URL we would call to get the Thumbnail for the Notification on YTMD for the notification.
Yep, here is a screenshot while playing a song in Firefox:
If there is a way how to get the logs from YTMDesktop, I can definitely get you those
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/ doesn't seem to be blocked in our network, I get a Google's 400 when opening it in the browser
