Full Version: Youtube addon activation

Does anyone else have the issue of the Youtube addon constantly asking to go through the activate procedure (typing in the code on the youtube.com/activate site)? It seems to work ok for a day or so after signing in, but then seems to drop out and ask to activate again.
Yes.

Has it always behaved that way?
It should ask you to put on 2 activation codes then be good. I think I had to put in 3 or 4 then it still wouldn't search. I don't really use the addon anyway.

Is pretty much my experience. I put the code in twice (as per the instructions) and then it works for a day or so, but then it asks me to do the same thing again.
Actually never mind, i see that the latest 5.2.2 release has addressed this issue. I didnt realise i wasnt on the latest version

although it's a beta, I can confirm this solved my problem on 16.1. Before I ran the updated addon, I went into settings and used the new options to delete cache and others, then ran the addon. I put in my 2 activations and up and running without issues for the last few hours.
