[mention]marshale12[/mention] for clarification you refer to the "YouTube for androidTV" app? Or the Paid subscription YouTubeTV app? Or SmartYouTube app?

Suggestions:
1.) Make sure the Google Play Services apk is updated.
This number (080306) must be in the version number.
This identifies your correct version of AndroidTV OS.
Example= Version 15.0.90(080306)(231259764)
(this needs a special apk to force it to update through built-in store, or to do it manually from downloading from APKmirror.com, just make sure it is for AndroidTV and for armeabi-v7a)
2.) Make sure the Google Webview apk is updated. A system apk that controls how web content is displayed. Should be available to update through Play store.
3.) If using SmartYouTube in atvX-V2H, make sure the system apk has been uninstalled completely and upgraded to latest version.
4.) If doing any of the above installs/uninstalls make sure to Reboot device then try and see if problem still exists. Editing system apks always needs a System Reboot after modifying them.

My personal preference is using Smart YouTube because its ability to stop ads. The current version of this apk runs flawlessly.
BE KIND, BE NICE, BE RESPECTFUL TO OTHERS, RESPECT THE MODERATORS,
*IMPORTANT NOTE* ONLY PM MODERATORS OR DEVELOPERS AS A LAST RESORT!!!

☢️ My test device: H96 Pro+ 3gb/32gb DDR4 ☢️ Plus own Tanix, Beelink, Alfawise, X96S, Odroid-N2, Khadas VIM3L, X3, ADT-3, X96-Air

Remove system Smart YouTube TV app using System App Safe Remover and install apk version from here https://smartyoutubetv.github.io/
It's same app, but supports auto updates and developer is amazing - if you report issue he always reply really quickly.
Playback is the best I've seen so far - 4K@60 playing without any issues
