Thanks guys
Really happy that you managed it! Can I ask you a favour? Can you please try to play this video through the YouTube add-on and report back at which resolution it is played?
Thanks!
Unfortunately it plays only in 720 but in youtube web view plays in 1080, dont know why
Thanks for the feedback! So it seems there is still something that needs to be "tuned" inside inputstream. I hope that the developers will solve it. Keep in touch!

Just one clarification on the add-on versions...tell me if something is wrong:
- 5.3.6 is on the Kodi repository
- 5.3.7 is available on github under the "Releases" page (why is not on Kodi repository?)
- 5.3.8 is the actual github "under construction" version (and should be downloaded through "Download ZIP")
Thanks!
Hi Jeff, can you provide a feedback on this? Thanks and have a great day!
RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - Pipppero2007 - 2017-01-23
Hi,
I cannot no more have the graphic interface in the YT plugin.
Simply there's no more that option, even in the interface.
Actually I can only browse via text.
I need to browse via images.
How to obtain that?
Thanks!

I dont really understand your question 100% however you can maybe try:
* HOW TO DELETE THE YOUTUBE ADDON AND DO A CLEAN INSTALL
from the FAQ in Post #3 on Page 1 here.

Yes some videos plays in 720 though it has 1080 when played in browser, still some issues needs clean up

I try to explain me better: the YT addon can be used in *text* way (I read the name of the videos) or by *images* (I have big squares images of the preview for each videos).
In fact, in the settings I can choose the MAX number of videos per page. That is useful for the "images" browsed view.
Unluckily after I installed the YT plugin in my new computer, when I launch it, the wizard didn't ask me what interface I want and also in the settings there are any option to change from text view to images view.
I want this again:

You could also change the version to 9.9.9 in the addon.xml file of the unofficial version.

I have tried the video you linked above and it plays at 4K (but Kodi is buffering...)! I think we have made a little step forward...
So far two issues then:
- Some streams are correctly played at 1080p and above, some others not;
- How is possible to set the maximum resolution to avoid 4K playing? Under inputstreams.adaptive there is such an option, but it seems it doesn't work (i.e. if I set maximum resolution at 1080p, it goes anyway at 4K).
I don't think that the issues are related to the YouTube add-on...right? Do you have a direct link with the inputstreams.adaptive developer? It seems that the development of that add-on is stuck at the time being...
The way i was told by anxdpanic how the plugin works is the stream is handed off to the player and then nothing happens with the plugin till it's done. i got 1080 on my laptop so i'm assuming it's detecting what your settings are and then pushing it out to that. Thats a guess though. Honestly i don't have contact with the developer of inputstream as I only maintain this plugin from and administrative point. The coding is done by others and i just maintain the code and answer questions i know in the forum. I know the coder we have is working on another project so he's very hard to get a hold of at the moment.
Sorry i couldn't help you more.
Jeff
Thanks for your answer Jeff. For the time being I will survive with 720p or 4K! The day of 1080p will arrive!
Hi Jeff,
peak3d (the developer of inputstream) kindly answered to the issue I opened some time ago on github. From his analysis of the log, it seems that inputstream is not involved...that is why the video is played at 720p and not at 1080p. So the issue may be ralated to YouTube add-on not "calling" mpeg/dash for that video.
I hope you can calloborate in order to solve this issue. I'm of course available for any kind of testing.
YouTube Plug-in Thread - Gothico - 2017-01-24
Axl, you could try and set the Kodi Desktop to 1080p.
YT uses this setting.
On RasPi its a tweak ( set to 720p) to save memory, but video addons use that setting too.
Movies still play in their resulotion.

@vipa: that looks to be OS related. Can you check https://github.com/jdf76/plugin.video.youtube/issues/14 and see if that helps you out any.
@axlt2002: I put a notice in the logs for these cases when dash was added to try to alleviate some of this.
From your log on github you can see,
Code:
