My kodi native package from RaspBian Jessie is working nicely after some tweaking (firewall, buffering, screen resolution, graphical memory allocation,...) on my RaspBerry Pi 2 B. However, only YouTube plugin was not playing any videos. Login and listing of contents was possible but not playback. Not a single video played. By looking in kodi.log i found out that libcurl has a SSL connection problem which is already known in one of the threads here. Now i am trying to doe the workaround listed at https://gist.github.com/aerickson/f15133a7e56b2d7f27e3 for making YouTube plugin work. The problem seems to be that more recent versions of curl are linked to GNUTSL, which deactivates support for RC4 encryption, whereas OpenSSL has such support. Thus a relinking of curl is needed...
