Some videos (of adult content?) seem to not appear in the YT mobile app on my Nexus 5.

Example:

This person has posted 13 videos: Edward Leigh - YouTube
If I view that page on a desktop browser, the second video is "'Now f**k off and die' - Closer (Great Movie Sequences)". (The 8th video has the same title and is nearly the same video, just a slightly different start.)
If I view their channel page via my Nexus 5 (*via the Youtube app*) neither of those videos appear.

I have SafeSearch set to "Don't filter" (although shouldn't that not matter anyhow as I'm not looking at search results but instead I'm looking at a list of their uploaded videos?)

If I view the channel page in the mobile chrome browser then the videos are listed.

What's going on here?

This is just one example, but there have been other times when I'm not able to find a video via the mobile app that I know exists.

d'oh.

i just realized the simple reason.

"The content owner has not made this video available on mobile"

Sorry for my confusion.

(Although why doesn't the m.youtube version of the page filter out the video the way the app does???)
