The log you provided doesn't have debug logging enabled. Enable debug logging, restart Kodi, reproduce the issue, upload the log, and then disable debug logging. debug_log (wiki)

I'm sorry for the mistake, I hope I did it right this time.

@Paulo Boullos 
That was exactly what was needed.
Enable 'YouTube Settings -> MPEG-DASH -> Use for Videos' and configure your video quality in the MPEG-DASH category as well. Quality is limited without mpeg-dash, there are videos that are 360p max, and videos that have broken 720p streams.
If you're still not seeing the quality that you're expecting, create a new debug_log (wiki) with the mpeg-dash settings configured.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - anxdpanic - 2019-10-23

Just to give everyone a quick heads up. Soon this add-on may not be able to get your true Watch Later playlist id, which is required to be able to remove videos from your Watch Later list.
Will be looking for a solution, but now would be a good time to backup your Watch Later playlist id.

To do this:
  • Run 'YouTube add-on Settings -> Folders -> Retrieve Watch Later playlist id' and follow the prompts.
  • If this doesn't succeed try again the next day.
  • The playlist id is stored in userdata (wiki)/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/access_manager.json

I enabled MPEG-DASH and set it to "Adaptive (MP4/H264)" 
All music videos are playing at maximum quality.

Thanks so much for the great YouTube plugin.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - linesma - 2019-11-03

I am having an issue logging in for the first time. I know that one has to do this before they can enable a personal API key. I will get the first code and it appears to work. Then I go to add the second code, and Kodi just "hangs and errors out. If I try to log in again. nothing will happen. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and a complete uninstall, but to no avail. I am running Kodi 18.4 and plug in version 6.5.2 on an nVidia Shield TV.

Here is the log:  https://paste.kodi.tv/ixokuhegih.kodi


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - Paulo Boullos - 2019-11-03

Is it possible to change the position of “Go to” to always appear in the first position in place of “Refresh”? (see photo below)
If possible, what file should be edited?
I appreciate any help.

Youtube Addon problems - slackito - 2019-11-09

Hi, i am facing some wierd problems with the youtube addon.
I am running an odroid n2 with coreelec nightly. Nightly is currently required because of some bugs in CEC with the latest stable.

When i search some songs it first works, then i get an error and then i get no search results at all anymore.

Example:
1) I search "lana del ray"
2) i listen a few songs
3) i search "ol dirty bastard"
4) i click on "got ya money ft. kelis"
5) i recieve an error in the upper right screen that something went wrong
6) i click a couple of times on that item, the same error message appears
7) i click back to the search results
8) i click again on the "ol dirty bastard" query
9) i just see "..." as search results

now i have to delete function cache and some other stuff in maintenance of that addon to get it working again, for a few songs.

anyone else encountering this? is this a known problem?
here is the kodi log, but i did not enable debug:

RE: Youtube Addon problems - slackito - 2019-11-09

i am running version 6.5.1 of the youtube plugin


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - DarrenHill - 2019-11-09

@slackito - I've merged your posts into the YouTube addon support thread.

You can't yet edit posts as your account is too new and with too few posts to have that priv. It's a generic anti-spam measure, as we've had too many bots use that route to dump their payloads.


RE: YouTube Plug-in Thread - slackito - 2019-11-12

I updated to the latest version available at github and it seems to work now. I created a bug report for coreelec, so that they please update their addon repository.
