Affected version

0.25.2

Steps to reproduce the bug

You can confirm this by adding a PeerTube instance to NewPipe and going to a very obscure video with 0 views and then watching it (for more than 30 second) in NewPipe. You can check the video on the instance and it still shows 0 views, even hours and days later.

It's possible NewPipe may not be notifying the server that a viewer is watching the video which is necessary as shown here. https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html#tag/Video/operation/addView

Expected behavior

Watching a PeerTube video in NewPipe adds to the view count for the video.

Actual behavior

Watching a PeerTube video in NewPipe does not add to the view count for the video.
