The video you linked to also fails to load in a web browser with a "the uploader has not made this video available in your country" message. The first video shown from that account loads fine in web and in 5.2.4, presumably because it isn't region locked. I assume by the content of the video you are in Italy and the video isn't region locked there, so I wonder if there's some region settings that are acting up here.

In my case they all play in the browser and in newpipe with 360.

All cobtent meant for kids is not available 8n PipePipe . As suggested by @InfinityLoop1308 i should not use DASH. but this cannot be done on a specific video and i don't want to set it globally. It should be automatized the way NewPipe handles it transparently. Even if it is played with lower quality. Better than nothing.
