it's a copyright blocking you, breaking copyrights to gain access to content is piracy, piracy is not allowed on this forum
get it now?
that's why i gave you a link to instructions to have the content unlocked legally by the copyright holder

RE: YouTube - contremaitre - 2024-11-21
Hello,
I have an error message "this video is not available" on some video wich worked a few days ago.
I found this closed bug report : https://github.com/anxdpanic/plugin.video.youtube/issues/845
I have version 7.0.9, is the fix supposed to be included in my version, or do I have to wait for the next update ?
Thanks

@MoojMidge
if you see fit i think this version should be marked broken in the repo given all the recent reports
if not, would it be possible to simply push a tiny update, say 7.1.0, that shows a message to users that they need to update manually
it's going to be day after day post after post that users ask the same question
RE: YouTube - RManPT - 2024-11-22
I was having some trouble getting streams to load, kept getting a "Video not found" and seemed easier to do a clean install of the addon. Got to Git and downloaded 7.1.1.1 official and worked.
Now, there is one annoyance: I can't use the "play from here">"reverse". I used this features a lot to play through my "watch later" play list. I can always sort the playlist in reverse order and just "play from here" but it used to work so I guess it should still work.
Usually when pressing "Play from here" a new windows would popup where I could choose the playing order. How do I get it back?
Is it a bug or a feature I am failing to configure properly?
Thank you.
RE: YouTube - blueribb - 2024-11-22
I am currently using version 7.0.9.2 on 3 computers and the YouTube addon is still functioning perfectly.

There is no way i'll go through all that procedure every single time.The other plugin needs you to manually edit some texts to add your API credentials etc, and I don't know how tech-inclined you are. It's probably less traumatic to modify the sorting function in plugin.video.youtube instead so you can keep using it.
(You will still need to go that streams list like I described before at least once to make sure that the code change is working properly. But once you see that it is working properly then you won't have to do it anymore.)
To modify the source code of an add-on you do this:
- Download the latest ZIP release of plugin.video.youtube, as if you would install it in Kodi.
- Using a PC, unpack that ZIP somewhere and a new folder will appear:
/plugin.video.youtube/.
- Go to the relevant script file and do the changes as described below.
- Pack that
/plugin.video.youtube/folder back into a ZIP file. The name of the ZIP file doesn't matter, use some name that makes it clear it's your modified copy and not the original copy.
- Send that ZIP file to your Kodi device, then install it in Kodi through the "Install from zip..." menu.
The actual modifications to be made (for step 3 above):
- In the unpacked add-on files, go to
/plugin.video.youtube/resources/lib/youtube_plugin/youtube/helper/stream_info.pyon line 2029 (online reference). It's the_stream_sortfunction, used to sort the audio and video streams for the MPEG-DASH manifest file.
- That original function looks like this:
python:def _stream_sort(stream):
if not stream:
return (1,)
return (
- stream['preferred_codec'],
- stream['height'],
- stream['fps'],
- stream['hdr'],
- stream['biasedBitrate'],
) if stream['mediaType'] == 'video' else (
- stream['preferred_codec'],
- stream['channels'],
- stream['biasedBitrate'],
) - Using any code editor program, even online ones, instead of just Notepad (as code editors help preserve indentation, which is extremely important with Python), change it to this:
python:def _stream_sort(stream):
if not stream:
return (1,)
isMP4 = ('mp4' in stream['mimeType'])
return (
- isMP4,
- stream['preferred_codec'],
- stream['height'] if isMP4 else stream['height'],
- stream['fps'],
- stream['hdr'],
- stream['biasedBitrate'],
) if stream['mediaType'] == 'video' else (
- isMP4,
- stream['preferred_codec'],
- stream['channels'],
- stream['biasedBitrate'],
) - Proceed with packing the add-on back into a ZIP file as described above.
The result is something like this:
h264, 1080
h264, 720
h264, 360
vp9, 360
vp9, 720
vp9, 1080

This is worse with version 7.1.1, I have "this video is not available" on more videos. Here is a log for one of them :
