On current YouTube player +`c2f7551f` (May 2026) all six miss. NewPipeExtractor master's six +patterns also miss on the same file — and NPE-master's nsig (throttling) +pipeline is openly broken (`TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1339`, open +since 2026-02-03; the dev branch has had no sig/nsig commits in 60 +days). The reason NPE *appears* to work in apps is that the +Innertube paths for Android / iOS / TV clients return stream URLs that +don't carry an obfuscated `s=` signature for most videos — sig deobf +is a fallback the typical playback path never reaches. + +Two structural changes have happened since rustypipe was last cut: + +1. **The sig fn call site now sometimes takes a numeric prefix arg.** + New shape: `var&&(var=SIGFN(123,decodeURIComponent(var)))`.

So an + anchor like `decodeURIComponent` is no longer present at the sig-fn + call site as text — it's `e[37]` (or whatever the index is). + +NPE's pipeline handles (1) but not (2).

Now sig_fn / nsig_fn extraction is best-effort. Only the signature timestamp is required — every `needs_deobf` client needs sts in the request payload, but the actual deobfuscation functions are only consumed by map_url when a stream URL carries `&s=` or `&n=`. On failure we log a warning and store an empty string; Deobfuscator then skips the JS eval, and any deobfuscate_sig/deobfuscate_nsig call will fail loudly with "sig fn unavailable" instead of crashing the player.
