Good day,

I seem to be having an issue with YouTube this morning. I am currently using Leia (LibreELEC 9.2.6) with YouTube version 6.8.26~ALPHA7. I have never encountered this issue before and hope someone can assist me with the issue. My log file is attached.

You might want to consider upgrading to a newer version of LE. Python 2x may be causing issues here. In the meantime try uninstalling the YouTube add on without removing the settings and reinstall again.

I did that already and it did not work. I usually save the previous versions, so I just copied the plugin.video.youtube folder to the addons & addon_data folder and that worked. I know there is something wrong with version 6.8.25 but I can't remember exactly what it was. Anyway, this version is working and I have absolutely no idea why the latest version is failing.

I am also going to upgrade LE in the next few weeks. I am waiting on my RPI4 to arrive.

Shedrock

No module named 'infotagger'

means infotagger is not found, which means you did not install everything required when installing - or - the addon did not

file an issue with the developer if it was supposed to do it itself - https://github.com/anxdpanic/plugin.vide...ube/issues

if you were supposed to then recheck the installation directions - https://github.com/anxdpanic/plugin.vide...stallation
[font]thank you for your help, I will try your advice for kodi 19.2

I managed to run YouTube on KODI 20.0, everything works, only the sound interrupts, can you help me, what am I doing wrong??[/font]
hi there,
is there a page with explained how to activate 4k vids ?
i keep searching but i guess "enable" and "4k" are a bit too common on this thread

I've had this issue.  Infotagger I think was added to youtube addonfor Kodi 20 and IIRC if I upgraded a previous version of youtube (might have just copied files rather than install from zip?) it didn't force-install infotagger, but uninstalling youtube and installing again did install infotagger as well.

It's possible to d/l infotagger directly from Kodi addons and install from zip, but this is more advanced and I don't suggest it unless someone has a good working knowledge of Kodi addon management.

i personally cannot - i have never been able to get this addon to work, just wait awhile and perhaps someone will be able to assist

it would be advisable to file an issue at the already provided link though

Everything works elegantly at 720p

Sometimes I have interruptions in the sound when I set MPEG-Dash 1080p. Is it the fault of the wireless Wi-Fi connection?[/font]
I've been searching but couldn't find much documentation on this is there any way to play a first video returned from a search result?

Something like:

PlayMedia(plugin://plugin.video.youtube/kodion/search/query/?q=' + query+ ' trailer,return) I know you can though a search by the activate window option but was wondering if there is a more elegant solution?

this will play the first search result from the imdb trailers addon, a little rework and you can apply it to your situation

python:
infotag=sys.listitem.getVideoInfoTag()
title=sys.listitem.getLabel()
year=str(infotag.getYear())
xbmcgui.Dialog().notification("Trailers", "Finding trailers for {} {} ...".format(title,year))
playpath="plugin://plugin.video.imdb.trailers/?action=search_word&keyword={} {}".format(title,year)
payload = {'jsonrpc': '2.0', 'method': "Files.GetDirectory", 'params': {"properties": ['title'],"directory": playpath, "media": "video"}, 'id': 1}
info = xbmc.executeJSONRPC(json.dumps(payload))
info = json.loads(info)
info = info["result"]
if info['files'][0]:
    xbmc.executebuiltin("PlayMedia({})".format(info['files'][0]['file']))


of course, if you're not ready to do some coding then you're pretty well stuck with whatever the developer has provided
