I'm looking at custom widgets, tried a few different things but I've been unsuccessful so I figured I'd ask here. I'm trying to make a custom home widget that displays my subscriptions. Is this possible and if so what is the code I would need to put in to get this info? Thanks for your time.

Yes it is possible and you can try the following code for your custom home widget (it's what I use):
plugin://plugin.video.youtube/special/new_uploaded_videos_tv/

A couple of tips:

- If you use the Xonfluence skin (and maybe other skins too) you can first add the 'My Subscriptions' section to your Kodi Favourites, and after select this favourite in your skin settings as a custom home widget. This means you don't have to find and enter the code manually and it works for other addons in a similar way too (and you can delete it from your Kodi Favourites afterwards).

- If you are a more experienced user, you can also add the relevant section that you want to use for your custom home widget to your Kodi Favourites, and after open your favourites.xml file to find the code (which will be in a similar format as above).

Hope this helps

I have now edited my instructions to more clearly state this.

Anyone who has already signed in and used the standard Kodi YouTube addon also already understands what the "normal 2 x web activation" is.

Making personal keys is probably not for first time users that have not yet been able sign in by following the standard Kodi YouTube addon onscreen popup instruction that clearly states: "go to youtube.com/activate and enter the following code xxxx-xxxx" (this is the normal 2 x web activation).

Also when actually carrying out the steps in my instructions (rather than just maybe reading them), this "normal 2 x web activation" step will be very clear and without any ambiguity

Thanks. I've never signed in using the addon because I've never really wanted to trade my login credentials for that capability (just being paranoid).

However, reading through this thread (24 pages being much less daunting than ~270 in the previous thread), it appears that acquiring user specific API keys (so as not to bogart the public API keys and impact their usage quota) would potentially benefit me (no quota issues, potentially useful functionality as I lean towards cutting the cord), the community (removing my usage from the burden on the public API key usage quota), and the developers (help test the latest builds). So, with that calculus in mind, I was thinking the potential benefits make it worthwhile to go through the process of acquiring the keys, using your instructions, even though it requires using my youtube login creds.

Anyway, that's why I didn't know what you meant by the quoted section of the old instructions - I've used various addons since chipping my old original xbox more than a decade ago, but rarely linked that usage with external accounts (it's even more problematic now, given the recent new more stringent requirements for youtube account credentials). My guess is that there will be more people like me, finding this thread because the old addon support ended, and anything that helps reduce their burden on the usage quotas for the public API keys is probably a good thing.

Changed a few minutes ago the default login. Every user will get on the same Project, because we have getting an increase from google I think. Just saw that the quota is from 50.000 getting to 50.000.000 !
jdf76 did a request for the higher quota I think, maybe its due to him.

Please give me responce if this work proper. I'll get the Version to the Kodi-Repo as soon as possible.

I got all working. Do you know why the 1080p quality streams not showing up? When select "Always ask for quality" it's only showing maximum of 720p. When I open it on PC I can see streams up up to 4K.

DO you know how to fix this issue?

AFAIK the highest resolution support by Youtube in Kodi is 720p. There is no fix that is as good as it gets.

Sorry for double post......... but i want you to suggest for future version to maintain the same folder like the addons on repo.
Looking inside your zip the plugins it's inside "plugin.video.youtube-5.1.20.7" folder........if i install it over the 5.1.20.6 picked from repo i obtain a DOUBLE FOLDER for same plugins because the repo addons it's installed on "plugin.video.youtube".
