I tried url=plugin://plugin.video.youtube/playlist/[PID]/
with
xbmc.executebuiltin("xbmc.PlayMedia("+url+",isdir)") ,
but it just start playlist videos. How can I get videos from playlist and then chose myself which video I want to see?

Yes...don't use "PlayMedia". Try something line "RunPlugin"...

What is the difference between these 2.

From a user experience, I like "PlayMedia" when it come to playlists. The playlists start right away, I'm able skip to next video as well as view playlist(as list).

On large playlists using "RunPlugin"(or even from the addon itself "Autoplay/play from here") takes forever for the playlist to load.

Is there something wrong with using PlayMedia?

Yes...it is...RunPlugin with play and the playlist_id parameter plays all videos of a playlist. PlayMedia only the first (max.) 50 videos. Read the endpoints of the intial post.

So the only way to "limit" the playlist is by PlayMedia? Endpoints for playing list in predetermined order and starting video are defined. Is "max results" something that might happen in the future?

I've started to get the same problem since deciding to try out the kodi 16 beta 1 yesterday.
was not happening when i had previous kodi versions installed so maybe kodi 16 is making youtube addon do something different to how it worked in prior builds?

everything plays/works ok so having to change sort order everytime i go to a channel or a new page (only seems to save sort by playlist on the watch list & page 1 of new sub videos) is more annoying than something thats really broken anything.

I am running kodi 15.2 release version on a Windows 10 laptop. I'm having problems lately with the YouTube thumbnails disappearing. Sometimes I can logout, and back in again and they will reappear. Sometimes I have to uninstall YouTube and on and reinstall it completely. At one point I had to uninstall and reinstall kodi. My guess is that it is the cache file getting corrupted perhaps when I exceed my quota. I saw the message here somewhere when someone said they deleted or cleared the cache file but I can't figure out where it is or how to do it.

Hello, tried using this plugin today but getting lots of errors with streams failing to play, debug log is below if there is anything in there? I was viewing 'my subscriptions' and using the 'play from here' option..

Can you try to delete the whole addon-data folder of YouTube and start fresh. Somehow the format of the date is not valid.

Last night I was browsing the music videos from Postmodern Jukebox in My Subscriptions and when I clicked Next Page, I got an error message "You have exceeded...". Could someone explain what that means.

I see at page 40 of this post that there is the way to set subtitles of the video.
Is this possible also in the last release?

Already answered. Search this thread.

I'm having the same problem in Jarvis beta 2; I can no longer sort by date.

Note that individual youtube videos still show their dates in the media view, so the youtube addon is still getting them-- and I still have the same bizarre problem there I mentioned earlier in the thread, where the dates are all in year 65535 or 7080. No clue why.

Uninstall the plugin or delete plugin.youtube from add-ons and userdata then re-install from bromix repo worked for me.

You just got lucky-- unless you were using an older version of the addon before reinstalling, it uses the same API keys.
