yes you need the apps.googleusercontent.com.
if you manually edit the file do NOT change youtube-tv at all.
You need the API key,
The Secret and the Client ID as oauth is how you get your subscriptions. I would honestly use the default if you can. the keys should be good unless you really need your own API keys.

Oh maybe i misunderstood...
In the new UI there are 3 'api' fields. Am i meant to change all 3, or just the two that relate to OAuth ? (cause i've been trying to change all 3)

Not sure how anyone could be messing this up.
For me it works without the .apps.googleusercontent.com in the string.
Do the double authentication before changing the API keys .
After adding your API keys, logout and login.
This method has worked for me on a Raspberry Pi and Nexus Player.
If after following these steps it still doesn't work, then stick with the default settings and call it a day.

No there are 3 API fields. OAuth only has 2, and the web is your 3rd. Unfortunately i never got the personal API stuff to work on my end so i can't offer a person experience.

Honestly unless you need to change to your own API, i would just stay with the defaults.
