Youtube and my unlisted videos on Apple TV

I used to be able to watch my unlisted videos on youtube via Apple TV, but apparently, they just disappear. I still got them using my iphone, tablet or Mac, but as I said, they are not reachable using Apple TV (4th Gen).

Only if I turned them "public", I can watch them.

It was a fantastic way to store family videos that I don´t want to share with the entire world, just with my relatives and friends....

Any help?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 16

I am also having the same issue , previously I used to watch my unlisted videos under Library > your videos ,but now they are just gone . I am usingmy applle tv 4k 3rd Gen on a Sony 65" Android TV , and using the same account on Android TV YouTube app also , To my surprise my unlisted videos not only disappeared from my apple tv app it also disappeared from my Andriod tv app also. So I think YouTube has made some this change in TV apps intentionally .

Still I am able to see it on my iPhone app.

I have a exact same issue. I used to see all my unlisted videos under youtube>Library>your videos on Apple TV YouTube app but not anymore. This behavior started about a week ago. I see all these videos on ios app but disappeared from Apple TV app. I was playing with some of youtube privacy settings at the same time but wasn’t sure it was the reason. Not sure if anything changed on Apple TV app in latest update.

Same issue. This seems like a feature they have now subtracted from the AppleTV app… Not sure what the logic is on that. But I find not being able to view all my videos is a huge pain. What’s the point of having a library if it only shows your own public videos? I can find my public videos anytime via search. Currently looking for an alternative YouTube viewer app I can use on Apple TV since google are downgrading their own
