I think that the bug is that sometimes broadcasts=true is ignored

Can you try broadcast_type=archive instead of broadcasts=true? See if that is consistent and let me know! With the release of VOD upload, there have been some changes to this API, and I suspect that broadcasts was turned into broadcast_type.

I’ve tried it a couple of times and seems consistent. Is this new query permanent?

It is permanent. I have updating the docs on my ToDo list to reflect this change. Thanks for confirming!
