Hey guys.
I am running TrueNas Scale 25.04.2.5, Invidious app version: v2.20250913.0
I have been having this repeat issue with Invidious, specifically with the Companion component . I am Having an issue whereby when I try to view a YT video via Invidious I get the below.
I have double checked and the Companion service is definitely running. After checking the Companion logs I am getting the below.

I did check the Invidious troubleshooting to no avail. Anyone have any ideas on why a POTOKEN is no being generated?
Many thanks,
P
