Description
This seems to be the same bug that YouTube has on the community tab for some channels (which is still not resolved more than a year later) see #3318. This pull request adds the same workaround to the live channel tab. I'm not a fan of this for the subscriptions page but I'm not sure what the alternative is other than just not displaying items from the live tab for some channels.
Testing
I haven't seen this happening on any other channel than the one in the bug report, so here it is.
