Prioritise fetching songs from Topic Channels instead of Music Videos
Or there should be a button for it at least.
Basically every time I try playing an entire Album in Beatbump, sometimes there's a chance that at least half the album will have the Officially Claimed Music Videos chosen over the plain songs themselves.
Example:
https://beatbump.ml/release?id=MPREb_Eb5P5T1be7H
As soon as I press the "Play Album" button, the results speak for themselves:
It reminds me of when you try switching from Video to Song in the YT Music app, it "requests" you to get YT Premium for the privilege of that feature.
It's not great for the following reasons: -worse song quality -unnecessary filler from the Music Video -thumbnail issues
Is there a way to improve the algorithm here by at the very least having an option to choose/prioritise between the Video and the Song?
First off, great album - great band.
Secondly, I'm not entirely sure how to go about this, since Beatbump uses Innertube -- just like YouTube music does. So, the responses Beatbump serves are the same as it would be from YouTube Music. I'll see about looking into if YouTube Music premium is any different, and if so try to emulate it as best as I can.
Example from YTM:
The only evidence of it outside of YT Premium is in the Mobile App.
Just putting it out there to alleviate any confusion.
With the plans to implement video playback into Beatbump, if this is implemented, this feature will minimize performace + bandwidth impacts

All you have to do is perform another /browse request with VL$playlistId as browseId (https://github.com/vfsfitvnm/ViMusic/blob/master/innertube/src/main/kotlin/it/vfsfitvnm/innertube/requests/AlbumPage.kt). You can find the playlistId of an album in its share url
