Feature description

Please fix problems with FIRE STICK devices.

Why do you want this feature?

Even though NEWPIPE was of course not specially developed for a FIRE STICK, the use has been excellent for years.
Unfortunately, errors add up, some of which have already been reported here for some time, and make use only possible to a very limited extent.

1 - Search window does not close, search impossible, use of the device almost impossible - at least limited
2 - Video headlines in English instead of the chosen language
3 - Videos only start in 360p even though there is a higher resolution
4 - Saving favorites or settings is technically no longer possible
5 - Videos can not be started after a longer pause

These are just the most annoying bugs - especially that you don't close the search window on the FIRE STICK is annoying, the "fix" that was published for this should be implemented - otherwise after every necessary NEW PIPE Update the fix also to renew.

Hoping for more support and testing by the developers of NEW PIPE an FIRE STICK devices (and maybe similar.
