Works fine here. Could have been temporary. Try again.

@doonoo Please try to avoid linking 3rd party websites which track users, you can attach screenshots directly here in the issue, github allows that.

Yes, empty live in channel tab is experienced on first try, however it can be loaded after going to "about" tab then back to "live" again, but reproducible only on this channel.

I have tried a lot of other channels, live videos are shown in its channel tab. Can it be a new A/B test from YouTube as not everyone is experiencing it?

Gotcha. But as far as the a/b situation, I'm not sure, but I've been having that problem with the live page since forever. Me going to the about tab then going back to the live tab fixed it as said, but before then, it would not load at all.

Tested in 0.28.0 and have the same bug. Workaround of going to another tab and then again to live still works too 🤔
