I "converted" my account to a pages.plusgoogle.com account and my problems disappeared (instructions some pages back). Is this something you're willing to try?

Can you give some more info? Are you using your account login info or channel info? third party password set up?
I'm using my regular google login (the one i use for gmail).
I've tried using both my normal passsword, where i get prompted for the 2-factor 6 digit pin code, and using an application specific password.
Here is my log file:
http://pastebin.com/AdcHsGpi
key points:
16:59:27 Login with 2-factor pin
17:00:17 Login with application specific password with spaces
17:01:15 Login with application specific password without spaces
17:02:16 Login with incorrect password

Look for text string: nick = self.common.parseDOM(ret["content"], "p", attrs={"class": "masthead-expanded-acct-sw-id2"})
Replace that with: nick = self.common.parseDOM(ret["content"], "span", attrs={"id": "yt-masthead-user-displayname"})
Save and Exit
It worked for me as well!
Worked like a charm, no mucking around with google+/linking accounts/youtube settings. I made it work in Win7, but where can I find the YouTubeLogin.py file on my Mac? (OSX 10.8)
Nice work

Hi, if you mean this:
lhw455 Wrote:For anyone have recent issues with the plugin, check that Youtube isn't asking you every now and again to use your Google+ profile, that's the issue I was having. Just login to youtube in your web browser of choice, click a video and refresh it a few times. Sooner or later, a popup will come up, select whatever option you want, and the popup should go away.
I've done it about 8 months ago and that's when all the login troubles started. Unpairing youtube and G+ account didn't help either. Also none of the py source code modifications did the miracle for me. I'm lost

If it's of any help I can give you debug outputs from my YT plugin.

Not sure if that was directed at me, I didn't have the @pages.plusgoogle.com email address either, but following the instructions I was able to create one.

I'll try to be as direct as possible this time: It doesn't work for me (the instructions), it seems completely different under my account, no third party tools menu, no @pages.plusgoogle.com account. And yes, my account is paired with G+.

Try to open another gmail account to see if it works on another one? If so, you can at least narrow the problem down.

Found it (my Library folder was hidden)
to unhide your library: Terminal --> chflags nohidden ~/Library/
RE: [RELEASE] YouTube (Video) Plugin - De facto default standard YouTube Addon - Berre - 2014-01-28
I finally got the plugin to work again, by manually authenticating it, and writing the authentication token to the settings file.
My solution isn't easy, but i'll try to explain it.
1. open the following url to authenticate the youtube plugin with your google account:
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=208795275779.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob&scope=http%3A%2F%2Fgdata.youtube.com&response_type=code
This will send you to a page which gives you an authentication code.
2. Create an HTML file with the following contents, and open it in a browser:
http://pastebin.com/fdH9xJF7
3. paste the code from step 1 in the code field and click submit
This should give you a result like this:
{
"access_token" : "A long cryptic phrase",
"token_type" : "Bearer",
"expires_in" : 3600,
"refresh_token" : "Another cryptic phrase"
}
4. open the settings.xml file in your "userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.youtube" folder
find the oauth2_access_token setting and copy the access_token phrase from step 3 to the value field
find the oauth2_refresh_token setting and copy the refresh_token phrase from step 3 to the value field
for the oauth2_expires_at setting see step 5
5. Go to http://pythonwebconsole.thomnichols.org/ and run the following script
--------------------------------
import time
print "time.time(): %f " % time.time()
---------------------------------
This will output something like:
time.time(): 1390933738.478000
add 3600 to that number, eg. 1390937338.478000
paste that number in the value field of the oauth2_expires_at setting.
6. Save the settings.xml file
7. the plugin should now work... it did for me.

thanks a lot Berre, I followed step by step your method and it's working.
I don't even understand what the hell I did, you're a genius anyway !

Also used Berre's method and it works here as well (running Raspbmc)
Edit
Ok, mostly works. I'm only seeing 3 of about 20 subscriptions listed
