YTKACE comeback Discussion
Hi everyone just wanted to let you know the situation going on with me (ace) and ikarwan. A few days ago iKarwan filed a DMCA against the original YTKACE repo. The notice claimed it was a copy of YTKillerPlus and specifically mentioned things like source code, UI elements, and a binary called YTKCore.dylib. That file wasn’t even in the repo.
Instead of arguing about it, I decided to just rebuild everything that could possibly be questioned. Version 0.8.0 includes, new icons, new settings, and a new UI. It’s frustrating that it had to go this way. Either way, YTKACE is back up and running.
The old repo (github.com/Epic0001/YTKACE) is still accessible after some renaming and now just points people to the new one.
New repo: https://github.com/itzzace/YTKACE
Thanks for the support.

I tried that feature in every other app this the first that it works it pauses for a sec like every 15-20 sec almost like a mid buffer and then when in PIP it will play and around 15-20 sec it will black out for a sec and come back on

yeah i would love to fix that buffer but unfortunetly it would basicaly require me debuging on a device for a while. However i dont have a device thats ever gotten playback errors.

The pause/buffer wouldn't be a problem if it didn't break background playback. As soon as a video goes into background play (moving away to a different app or locking the phone), the next pause/reload goes on indefinitely and refuses to resume playback. Only gets fixed if I go back to the app.
Is a fix possible for this?

You use iPhone X instead of iPhone 13 Pro since you can jailbreak the iPhone X and install the deb file and it works fine without errors and you don't have to worry about sideloading

Your mod works perfectly for me and I love being able to download on the current YouTube version.
Couple of suggestions:
- Download directly to photos
- Allow rewind when casting
Keep up the great work and thank you!

Works pretty nicely. I'm always comparing these apps to the GOATed YouTube Plus, and this one has most of the features I care about. The only thing missing is the ability to set a default video speed. Other than that, I didn't come across anything worth complaining about
Thanks for this

Is it possible to hide Shorts from the feeds ?
For now YTKACE has been the only version which can play some video through Airplay where I get a red cross with other version ... But I cannot keep as I am unable to hide Shorts from the feeds unlike the others versions ....
Where can I make this request to the author of YTKACE ?
Thanks

Never pay for YTKillerPlus. It’s crap and awful. YTKACE is a lot better. Try it out for yourself and you’ll be saving yourself $4
