Did you install the YouTube add-on version 5.3.8? From the log it seems not...or have you installed the new Kodi RC4? I suppose that something have been changed since the links are not working...

i've just updated (cannot reinstall youtube as this is used by several other plugins - and system doesn't allow me to uninstall the plugin)

I really do not understand which could be the issue...I have reverted back to 5.3.6 and RC3 (not a clean installation)...the error persists. Btw, this does not happen for all the videos...quite strange.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - mac1202 - 2017-01-31

In previous version of the addon we could set view id, any plan to reintroduce this feature ?

Please see my post on the previous page, and the FAQ on page 1.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - mac1202 - 2017-01-31

ok thank just read the faq. Too bad kodi team make this choice because when you change the view from the side panel it only affect the current page, when you go to the next page the view change back to default, so It's pretty useless for now.

I am having a similar issue. I noticed that starting last night (1/30/2017) many videos (mostly music videos) would return the error "no video streams". I noticed that it happened to occur mostly with Vevo channels. For instance if I was trying to watch a music video from Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, or whatever I would get the error. If, however, I was watching an independent channel like Military Arms Channel, Hickok45, or Smalin the videos would play fine.

Any idea what might be causing this error?

Edit: I'm running version 5.3.6

And jdf76, many thanks for making/maintaining such a great add-on. I really appreciate the functionality it brings to my RPi setup. Its great to be able to play youtube videos through my tv without having to use the annoying built-in app on my TV


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - strra - 2017-02-01

+1 on "no video stream" on 5.3.8 .. not a music video this time

DIE IN A FIRE DRM GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE THE INTERNET SHOULD BE FREE FOR ALL ** RANT **

it seems like its a DRM thing ...basically @#$% (covers/speedups/remixes) play but official videos don't...
* if you turn on ask for bitrate every time it does not even pull up the bitrate options .. it just bails ..


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2017-02-01

The no video streams issue, should be fixed in the current github master branch.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - jdf76 - 2017-02-01

Updated repository.

Can you guys testing this As soon as possible so i can push it to Kodi repo?

RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - Masterdisaster - 2017-02-01

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Kodi 16.1 works as it should ("no video streams" issue is fixed)


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - masalamacho - 2017-02-01

With 5.3.8, YouTube addon appears to be working fine on latest Kodi 17 Krypton RC.
