YouTube Music Search Tabs Not Loading Properly

[akashsriramganapathy]

Steps to reproduce

1. Search for an album or song using YouTube Music tabs.
2. Titles do not load correctly.
3. Clicking an album results in infinite loading.
4. Pasting the album’s direct link works fine.

Expected behavior

• Titles should load properly in search results.
• Clicking an album should open without issues.

Actual behavior

• Titles do not appear in search results.
• Clicking an album leads to continuous loading.
• Issue with the URL passed by LibreTube:
  • Actual album link (working):
    https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m3se10UyzN9sygypuYrbc31NTzrN-eXEc&si=ygHr70dVeWcv9zek
  • Link LibreTube tries to open (broken):
    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=https://music.youtube.comOLAK5uy_m3se10UyzN9sygypuYrbc31NTzrN-eXEc
  • The extra https://music.youtube.com in the list parameter appears to be causing the issue.

LibreTube version

Android version
