Yes, I tried that as you suggested, but it did not work. However, if I take off MPEG Dash, then it works, but the 1080p YT channels can only play at 720p instead of 1080p. Maybe it's an issue with Newsmax? I even used the Windows "cast" feature from Windows File Explorer and it does the same thing. I am not sure what else I can do to resolve this. Sad

I don't know way You watch that channel (maybe there is addon or whatelse), but I tried watch newsmax just from search and it definitely works for me in "Alternate 3" & "Alternate 2" modes without turning off MPEG-DASH. So, check InputStream version: it should be 2.4.8 keeping in mind You are on Leia.

On another matter, I am using version 6.8.27-alpha7. Is there another version for Nexus 20.2 (to which I wish to upgrade) or should I use the same one?
It's a problem with InputStream, not with Youtube. You can't do nothing unfortunately Sad It should be just fine with Nexus and appropriate version of its InputStream and Youtube 7.0.2-alpha7

Thank you @StrangeAlien for your reply. Can you tell me if YouTube 7.0.2-alpha7 will automatically be loaded when installing Nexus 20.2 or must it be sourced from somewhere else?

Please pay attention: it's for Nexus only, it doesn't work on Leia nor Matrix
As for install: since it is alpha version, i.e. for test purposes, it can't be installed automatically, which means You should install it from .zip file, the same way You did it for 6.8.27-alpha7

I am using 2.4.8.1 but nothing has changed. I'll keep playing around with the setting to see if it helps.

I see other users having different problems. Does that mean that you all were able to generate the API key and secret?

I really don't need to know I watched the video in HD AFTER the fact - but now I can't t6ell how long videos are after the Kodi update and I decide what to watch sometimes based on how long a video is - now it's gone - is that from the Kodi update or an update to the YouTube app?
@xenophrenia Have you solved your issue and which version of YT addon are you using (and which ones have you tried)?
I have also recently upgraded Kodi from 19 to 20 and was puzzled by that change.
Hi boys.......... i have a lot of issue whit this ADDONS........
Recently i have buy a new hardware for using kodi.
It's a Intel NUC whit ubuntu 22.04.2 and i have installed KODI 20.2.
All works good but i can't understand.

I have ADD this youtube add-on......... currently the 7.0.2 alpha 7 but i have this strange issue.
I have correcly setup my API keys....... i can login to obtain all "My Subscription" and also "My Subscription (filtered)" but apparently NOT ALL channels i'm subscripted it's be appears in both section.
How it's possible !?!?! Only some channels i'm subscripted it's appears and it's appears in a completely random order........... how i can fix this issue !?!??!

I'm also have a KODI installation on my current windows 10 PC....... here's i can't reproduce this issue......... it's ubuntu the problems ?!!?


*EDIT*

https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3071377

*EDIT 2*

https://pastebin.com/asKPyUmi

Look the many errors related youtube addons....... apparently some issue whit ssl or similar.......... how i can fix ?

"Content Not Available On This App"

Thank You to whoever fixed this problem....Appreciate You. Hell Yeah.
I've been having issues with profile switching in the plugin lately. I mean the "Switch User" option in the plugin itself, not Kodi profiles. I have my YT account set up under the Default profile, and my girlfriend's under a profile with her name.

The first problem is that when I tried to change "Default" to my name, it just switched back to Default the next time I loaded the app.

The second problem is that when I'm watching something on my profile (Default), it always switches back to her profile. I mean that if I start a video from Default, by the time the video is over I'll be logged into her profile instead. So she has a bunch of my videos in her history, and my history shows I've only watched the first few minutes of videos I've watched all the way through. It's very frustrating. What's going on here?
