This solution work for me:

In the plugin directory, go /resources/language/Spanish/strings.xml. Open the file and search

Code:

<string id="30512">Subscribirse a %s%</string>
<string id="30513">Dar de baja de %s%</string>

Change for

Code:

<string id="30512">Subscribirse a %s</string>
<string id="30513">Dar de baja de %s</string>

Q: Can someone confirm that live YouTube streams don't work? YouTube streams some live sports that I would love to be able to receive through XBMC, but currently the plugin says that the video stream doesn't exist. I have to access the videos through my browser. Is this a known limitation? Or am I missing something important?

Having the same issue right now (just started using XBMC). Regular Youtube vids work, but attempting to watch the League of Legends Championship Qualifiers livestream is failing Says "couldn't locate video url". Fails both when I click on it using my remote, and use "Send to XBMC" from my browser.

For that matter, the livestreams are not showing up on the user's channel in my subscriptions either.

Attempting to fix myself but drugged up after wisdom teeth extraction (same reason I'm watching it from my couch in the first place heh) so not going so well

I'm trying to watch lacrosse on YouTube live right now and I get the URL not found error as well. From my log, it looks like it can't find the video when it is scraping the page. For some reason, some live videos work fine. I don't know why the addon would be able to scrape some pages and not others.

I can't get any youtube videos to work on Frodo RC3 with youtube plugin 4.4.1. any help please?

[Shaq2k]

Just like I thought... look at this post. It's working for me:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1292056

Thank you for this. It worked for me also.
Probably something to do because I use Norwegian letters I guess.

Apple TV 2 XBMC wont "Play All/Play and Shuffle All" on youtube. Any help? Tried downgrading to 3.3.0 youtube but still no luck. Here is my debug. Thank you!

It seems that my chrome and firefox plugin taken from
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add...extensions

does not show any "play in xbmc" Button on a youtube page

can anybody confirm this?

I use xbmc 12-rc2

I am having the same problem, I can't see the button anywhere. I have searched this thread and not found a solution just yet. It was suggested to delete the plugin folders manually and reload, which I did, but still nothing. I have tried both chrome and firefox. I'm on a mac if that matters. Can anyone offer any thoughts on why the button is not showing up for me?

Hola,

Youtube addon does not work for me. When I click any option (favorites, Etc.) it says "plugin error"

Here is the log: http://pastebin.com/Qw1X9xEJ

Adiós.

I think I've found the problem that gives me the "Plugin Error" when accessing my favorites or any other option in youtube plugin. My language was setting in Spanish and XMBC showed me the error.

Here is the debug log "Spanish Settings": http://pastebin.com/twni4rwW

And then I changed the language to English and voilá... No error, everything worked like expected.

This is the debug log "English Settings": http://pastebin.com/8rsZhk94 (No error)

Can anybody who knows coding, tell me how to fix this.

Gracias.

pacmora gives you the solution a few messages up.

Is this a known issue ? Whenever a youtube video has an age limit, it's impossible to play it with this add-on ?

This issue is rather annoying

Try this:
in YouTubeStorage.py find this line:

Code:

return key.encode("utf-8","ignore")

and replace it with this one:

Code:

return key.decode("utf-8").encode("utf-8","ignore")

It should work (don't ask me why)

Can someone dumb it down for me, when I try "sudo nano" on those directories, I find nothing.
Where do I find YouTubeStorage.py in xbmcbuntu?

Is this the fix for "Script failed! : plugin.video.youtube"?

Can someone please tell me where to find "YouTubeStorage.py" file in xbmcbuntu?

Is there a way to normalize the volume of the Youtube Video's?

I notice when I play a playlist there's a lot of difference in volumes between video's.

I tried looking thru the plugin's settings as well as XBMC's settings, but there's nothing when it comes to video's that normalize the volume.

Is this possible? If not, is it maybe a nice feature to add in the future?

[BillTuttle]

Any progress on the YouTube issue? I've tried the "return key.decode("utf-8").encode("utf-8","ignore")" patch and I still get the video url not found. Any suggestions?

Hello,

my youtube add-on is not working. When I start it is displaying "Open Stream" and after some seconds it closes (without starting the video) without error message and returns to the clip overview.

In the debug log there is a warning followed by some error messages.

Here is the logfile: http://pastebin.com/VEwZFNbf

I'm running youtube add-on 4.4.1 with XBMC Frodo / OpenElec on Raspberry Pi

Thanks for your help!
