Affected version

When entering a video | latest version of newpipe 2025 | version 0.27.4

Steps to reproduce the bug

Enter a video on newpipe/search a video up and click on it
There is a high chance that its going to say "something went wrong"
It is going to give you the 3 options of "report" "retry" "open in browser"
I am not sure if this happens on all devices.

Expected behavior

I expect that it wont show "something went wrong" all the time i go on a video (sometimes it doesn't say something went wrong)

Actual behavior

It says "something went wrong"
