I'm using the new capability of Gotham to fill a dynamic list with the content tag below. It fills the list and when clicked the videos open and play and everything seems to work fine except the tag $INFO[Player.Title] that is supposed to show the title of the currently playing video, just shows "videoplayback" now. Is that a bug? Thanks.

PHP Code:

<content>plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?path=/root/search&amp;feed=search&amp;search=$INFO[Window(Home).Property(Artist)]</content> 


I don't know if this is a bug. I would like to remind that this is an early alpha version so not all will work as expected.

You realize app passwords aren't all that secure. They basically make 2 factor auth pointless as they are not limited to a single app. If anyone gets hold of your app password they can access any google web services that support app passwords. Not just YouTube.

If you do some googling you may find app passwords are not as safe as you might think. I will stick with real 2 factor authentication.

This plugin does not provide access to any features of the web site that require a logon so things like purchases will never work.

App passwords don't provide access to logon via web either

As soon as someone has the refresh token of the old youtube addon your are f**** With the refresh token you don't need any password or something else (tried it with a fake account). Nothing is really safe. Please setup a transparent proxy in your home network and log some of your apps of your phone. It's so easy to decipher the data - tested it with a faked certificate, which allows you to view calls via https.
This is an early alpha...the solution for the web support is not that complicated. For everything there is a solution you only have to try!

Its a shame that all this effort could not have gone to enhance the other plugin. Maybe fix those logon issues.

The open source community obsession with forking is counter productive.

Everyone can use the code of this addon to improve the "old" addon. I have no problems with that but someone has to do it.

Was playing with several login options/actions and suddenly this error appeared in debug log:

Code:

10:34:12 T:916   ERROR: C:\Users\htpc\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.bromix.youtube\youtube\requests\packages\urllib3\connectionpool.py:730: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html (This warning will only appear once by default.)
                                              InsecureRequestWarning)

With verification the API won't work. A common problem with APIs like that. Even with Curl you have to deactivate this feature. The solution would be that you have to install a certificate on your machine. All other addon suppress this warning/error. Nothing to worry about, because the connection is https.

A small "cosmetic" thing I've noticed, sometimes the duration is shown as 1 minute even if the video is much longer. Not a big deal, everything works as it should anyways.

I know, this is a problem of XBMC (Kodi) I've noticed.
For videos and movies XBMC supports only full minutes (no seconds). So if a video has a runtime of 1:31 XBMC will only show 1 minute. Maybe I'm doing it wrong and someone can correct me. But that what I've noticed.
