as for your questions:
I do have another video addon installed - XBMC Torrent, and it is working with no issues.
regarding the python version, OS X Yosemite comes with python 2.7.6 pre-installed, but,
Kodi for mac comes with python 2.6 lib bundled in Kodi.app/Contents/Libraries/lib/python2.6
I did try to put there the lib of python 2.7 instead, but then Kodi fails to execute the add ons completely.
As I said in my first post, I'm using the latest version of Kodi which is 14 (Helix) for Mac.

Have you or anybody else but me ran this addon on this version ?

As for the folder renaming, I did it but it still crashes:

Again - thanks in advance, I wish this Haddon would run fine on my system already Sad

I organized Yosemite and try to test this in the next couple of days. Hopefully the image of Yosemite is working in a VM Wink It has something to with python 2.6 and the classes I use.

10x for your effort, I also updated my post, so take a look at what I wrote there Smile
Thanks for the information Smile somehow we will get this resolved. The problem is localized and I try to release a beta for futher tests.

Was this a section in the old addon especially to list live streams?

Yes I believe so if i´m not mistaken.. and I dont think I am.

Bromix, what's the difference between full/HD? Sorry if this subject has been touched already.


RE: YouTube - KODI 14.0 Helix - pluginbroken - 2015-01-07

I'm using the default skin, confluence, and I'm having trouble signing in. Nothing is displayed aside from the "Visit youtube.com/activate" but I don't see any code, I checked the log and it produced nothing fruitful. I did check the addon cache and found a settings file for the youtube plugin. The Login hash reversed to dev/null.

Log for the sign in process
Code:

Is there some sort of alternative way for the sign-in, or a fix? If there isn't then please tell me what to do to install the old youtube plugin.


RE: YouTube - KODI 14.0 Helix - levelt8t - 2015-01-07

The new graphics are def welcomed. However I can't access my recent subscription videos anymore... Can I still access my recent subcr vids? Nod

HD =720p

This will change in the update to these definitions Smile

I'm a little bit tired to say it again and again ...but please complete logs on pastebin.com or similar.
And why shouldn't I fix this sign in problem...........?

New uploaded videos of your subs are under 'my subscriptions'
Is your Google+ connected to YouTube?


RE: YouTube - KODI 14.0 Helix - tonic22 - 2015-01-07

Hey bromix what do you mean by Full HD = 1080p? I have selected this option and still the videos are 720p.

If the video isn't available in 1080p for the API you will get 720p (like for most videos). Search the forum for YouTube 1080p and DASH to know why.
Also you won't get 'Watch Mojo' videos in 1080p if you selected it, because they mostly publish in 480p Wink


RE: YouTube - KODI 14.0 Helix - bromix - 2015-01-07

For those of you who are testing the beta...I updated to beta~3.

Please check your settings for the 'Video Quality' I added by request some additional SD-Qualities. So the INDEX moved a little bit, so you must (only once) adjust you video quality Smile

Also I made some changes regarding MAC OS X 10.10.X based on Python 2.6...maybe this will work, I don't know for sure.

Thanks for the quick reply. Hopefully there will be support soon for 1080p on all Youtube videos.

Its a Kodi issue, not a YT* or addon problem. YT 1080p is dash streams, Kodi isn't able to play dash (yet ... ?). (@bromix: maybe you should add the info about the 1080p dash limitations to the first post, its easier to reference that Smile)

* YT can't stream/display in higher resolution than the channel owner uploads in. In the reencode thingy that YT does, the lower resolutions are usually available first, so if no HD option is avilable wait a while and check again, or it may simply be a low res video.


RE: YouTube - KODI 14.0 Helix - Hufvudet - 2015-01-07

Newbie here. Just updated to Helix 14.o and Youtube 5.0.1. I'm also signed into my youtube account via the activation page.

My problem: Using Aeon Nox skin and trying to access trailers like I used to (from individual info page of each movie in my library) I'm being directed to the Youtube add-on "frontpage" and not the actual trailer for the movie. There's no automated search like before. Is this no longer possible since the update?

Please help!
