Description

Issue related to #770.
Niconico's video streaming is specified as a host disconnecting the connection if a specific URL is not visited periodically. This is called "heartbeat" and is required when watching long videos or downloading.

Does NewPipe or Extractor have the ability to perform periodic HTTP communication?
