Unable to access Youtube Gaming website, again

Post by Tomaso » 2016-11-05, 15:59

https://gaming.youtube.com/
Your browser isn't supported
This was fixed once before:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9882/
..and it still works just fine with PM v26.5.0.

Looks like we need a new fix for Tycho.

Feel free to find out what useragent override we need for it.

The one posted by cartel still works:
viewtopic.php?p=67702#p67702

PM v26.5.0 doesn't need this though.
It will even work without Firefox Compatibility mode.

Google still UA sniffing. Sees either Pale Moon or Goanna and refuses access.
Since the youtube UA override has changed, it also affects gaming.
So.. needs an extra override in v27
