RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2020-02-08
Still an issue with the same file, so I'd try shutting down Kodi and manually deleting
Code:
~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/access_manager.jsonRE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - cawigab - 2020-02-08

It looks like the access_manager.json has been corrupted somehow
Code:1. Settings -> Maintenance -> Delete access_manager.json
2. Sign In
That’s exactly what my problem was testerday.. I had to manually remove.this file for making youtube working

OK. On the plus side the plugin now launches and allows me to sign in. However, after I put the second code on google.com/device I was greeted with:
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2020-02-08
Sign in requires personal API keys now.
You'll find more information and the wiki linked https://github.com/jdf76/plugin.video.youtube/issues/700
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - Wojtek - 2020-02-08
Oh, I had to literally fight my way through the vast array of my (obsolete and mismatched) API keys. Ended up with creating new credentials from scratch. If this helps anybody, my workflow was as follows:
- first creating new API keys and credentials using https://github.com/jdf76/plugin.video.youtube/wiki/Personal-API-Keys
Then I had to:
- stop kodi (systemctl kodi stop)
- remove both ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/access_manager.json and api_keys.json manually
- edit ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/settings.xml and remove all traces of old api keys by deleting them from:
<setting id="youtube.api.id">oldID</setting>
<setting id="youtube.api.key">oldkey</setting>
<setting id="youtube.api.secret">oldsecret</setting>
- create new ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/api_keys.json (touch api_keys.json) with following content:
{
"keys": {
"developer": {},
"personal": {
"api_key": "newkey",
"client_id": "newID",
"client_secret": "newsecret"
}
}
}
(substitute your key, ID and secret, generated using the procedure linked on top of this post, obviously)
Finally - started Kodi again (systemctl kodi start), opened the Youtube add-on, signed on, all works now. Thanks @anxdpanic for your help!
(for reference - I am on latest official Coreelec)

So, I finally did the api key, logged into YouTube, and it worked fine for about 30min until it popped up an error in the top right corner... YouTube LoginException: [401] unau... Gets cut off, but below it says unauthorized.
I can still play videos but error won't go away until I restart Kodi.

Error on search: https://is.gd/bOFxTn
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - csvke - 2020-02-11
Can I please ask if I use this addon without sign-in, whose youtube API quota does that use when fetching videos?
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2020-02-11
@THRobinson
If you're still experiencing this, please include a complete debug log (wiki)
@Derthona83
Can you tell me what is happening versus expected? Not sure if I'm missing something in the log, or if it's something that isn't logged.
@csvke
It uses the keys provided by the add-on, quota is limited and sign in is no longer possible with those keys however.
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - Wojtek - 2020-02-12
For some reason I needed to manually delete access_manager.json, reboot and re-login in order to keep working. Perhaps it's an API issue (my consent screen is still not validated by Google)?
I also get a lot of connection errors to YT, like:
2020-02-12 10:22:56.107 T:3131544448 ERROR: ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='s.youtube.com', port=443): Max retries
exceeded with url: /api/stats/watchtime?cl=294125395&docid...
They happen every 10 seconds and I believe they max out the API request counter on Google side very quickly. Any way to disable this?

(2020-02-11, 23:53)anxdpanic Wrote: @Derthona83It's simple. When I type the query, sometimes the research does not start. If you read carefully in the log: "Plugin not found".

RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2020-02-14
@Derthona83
I haven't been able to reproduce so far, hopefully I'll be able to get to the bottom of it.
@Wojtek
I'd need a complete debug log (wiki) catching when that issue starts to hopefully see what's happening.
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - r0ck0 - 2020-02-15
I've been having an issue with youtube videos pausing and the screen flashing black during the first few seconds of playing. I can't seem to figure out whats causing the problem. It seems like a refresh rate switch but it didn't always do this.
