### Problem Description

When there is a video that for some reason cant be played in FT (eg. Members only, youth protection or some kind of technical error like cypher error) the playlist stops or repeats the last video before the error occured endlessly.

### Proposed Solution

Allow automatic skipping of unplayable videos in playlists, no matter why they are not playable with FT.

This setting would be helpful as setting in the settings section.

### Alternatives Considered

Allernatively automatic error skipping should be offered in the playback page.
