I get the same thing with 5.0.4-beta3

[bromix]

Thanks for the excellent work bromix
just one question.
is there a way to save the view option?
i cannot save it to wall, every time when I close Kodi, it goes back to list view.

Can confirm on MQ5 with the Helix fix. The view setting defaults to wide when restarting Kodi. However, in the settings, I turned off "View override" or something to that nature and had success with the addon remembering my view setting.
On another note, I had all my playlists go empty. When I click on them, the only thing listed are "Playlists." Selecting it does nothing. This includes my Watch Later and Favorites.

EDIT I rolled back to 5.0.2 and that solved my playlist problem. Something to do with the beta?

I put MQ5 on my ToDo for skins to test.

I get the same thing with 5.0.4-beta3

Thanks with 5.0.4~beta4 everything should work now

If I try the search of this forum and try 'EXC_BAD_ACCESS' I find some issues regarding Mac OS X. Maybe someone there can help more then me. I can't really help in this case

I tried on a clean yosemite install on a macbook air (another system) and it is still the same.
I tried all versions:
kodi 14.0 - 32/64 bits
kodi 14.1RC1 32/64 bits

all produce the same issue

This kind of test makes no sense. You put a probably damaged engine in another vehicle. The question is if Yosemite is the problem? That we should also confirm. Yosemite is quite new and has some bugs (if you search for Yosemite). I developed only once on a Mac mini and must say never again

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by saying it makes no sense and that I put a damaged engine in another vehicle.
You said that it might be my system and that we need to check without any other addons so I took a clean Yosemite install on another machine and tried it as well.

This eliminates the thought that it relates to the other addon,
Eliminates the thought that this is only my system.
And leaves us with the possibilities that it's a bug in OS X/Kodi/Python 2.6.5(which is compiled into kodi)

I thought you would try another OS (the version from before, because Yosemite is more an update) On the same system/platform. For example I work for a software company and from time to time we encounter problems on a windows 8.1 but not on windows 8...or even windows 7. SO we have to test and try to exclude the OSes which are not the problem and then start from there. In your case Yosemite. Yosemite has at the current moment a not so good standpoint on the market for apple. A lot of customers are complaining about the new design and the bugs (this is today more or less normal) and the system is only a few month old. In my case I have the 2 Minute freeze bug while installing Yosemite and no one has a correct solution for that.
If you search in this forum you will find some errors regarding Mac OS X systems which lock very similar to the error you have. So we should (If possible) test if its more a problem based on the OS or are we hunting ghosts. For my experience (and I thought you couldn't play any video, but you could) because the errors happen randomly seems for my not a bug in a addon it self (because the script is already finished).

I added 'Live' events in v5.0.4~beta5.
I need some feedback. The API is somehow strange. This is the result of a search with a parameter for filtering live events it's working somehow, but I'm considering to provide this as as option for the search, so you can search for 'sports' live events and will get results (or not).
But first I need feedback.

Hmmm... I'm still not able to access my recent subscription videos. When I select "My Subscriptions" I get a Script Failed error. I've tried with my Google+ account both connected and not connected to my YouTube account, and also with a channel created under my YouTube account and with no channel created. If it helps to find a solution, here is what comes up in the log file after receiving the error in Kodi.

Any further help on this issue is much appreciated!

I don't know how this is even possible v2 has no second page on subscriptions...I fixed the bug...but I can't replicate it, because I never get the second page. You haven't changed anything on the source?

Update 5.0.4~beta2 is on the way. Thanks for your feedback.

Hey Bromix,

I ended up closing my Google+ account that was connected to my YouTube account (I never used it anyways). I also found a page within my regular Google account settings where I was able to revoke my access to my Google account from specific apps and devices. There were two apps listed for YouTube... if I remember correctly, one was called YouTube TV and the other was YouTube XBMC plugin (or something similar). I think this was what was causing the issue where I couldn't access my recent subscription videos in Kodi. After doing these things, I re-installed the latest beta version (5) of the Kodi YouTube app, and was able to successfully access my recent subscription videos!

Thanks for helping me look into the issue more and finding a solution!

Hi Bomix,

It seems the "play using" option in the context menu has been taken away in both "playlist" and "watch later" sections. I was able to choose my external player to play my watch-later videos with directshow filters a couple of days ago but the option is now gone. Is it possible to add it back?

By the way, would you please consider including 720p/1080p"60fps" in the video quality options in the future as YouTube has been allowing 60fps uploads and playback for a while now

And, it would be nice to if you can also consider implementing "subscription collections". On YouTube, you can group your subscribed channels into different collections. They work like folders so you can put channels with similar content into the same collection (very useful if you've subscribed to a lot of channels and want to have them more organized). I can create these collections on YouTube but obviously they are not visible in the add-on at the moment.


This is a super-cool add-on

Joe

Awesome this is great news. Nice work! so you also revoked the other "App" "YouTube XBMC" ? maybe we should put this in the FAQ on the first page. Thanks for sharing the information

I have to take a look, I hope this is a default action ..I replaced the context menu because there are too much entries and sub menus aren't support yet If I may ask, why you're using an external player?

Thanks and for collections and 1080p/60fps please read the FAQ on the first page why these features aren't supported.

I use MPC-HC + ffdshow + a very good Avisynth script to do frame interpolation and watch some YouTube videos at 60fps (mainly for sports and live performance videos). They look a whole lot smoother and more realistic at higher frame rate To achieive the same effect with SVP+DSplayer it takes 2x-3x the CPU power ...

I see If I'm not mistaken this should be the action id SwitchPlayer. I prepare this for the 5.0.4 branch (so in the next beta you should be able to play with the external player again).

That's awesome! Thanks so much for the great work and all these efforts

[mortenguppy]

Since 'Reccomended' still doesn't work and it's the function I use most is there a way to keep kodi from switching back to the 5.x version every few hours?

In the beta6 go to 'Addon-Settings' -> 'Advanced' and enabled 'Support alternative player'

Any chance you could give a detailed description of how to do this.
Not having 1080P and 60FPS is really annoying me (which is no fault of Bromix or this addon)
