Hello,
Thank you for your work and your fast support.

I'm building a plugin using the file youtube_resolver.py to resolve youtube url's of live streams that I want to play continuously without user interaction (using a custom xbmc.player and the function onPlayBackEnded())
I was not able to do it using requests to plugin://plugin.video.youtube...

So, my problem is that the URLs that I get are not playable.

bash:
ERROR: CCurlFile::Stat - Failed: HTTP response code said error(22)

I get a 403 error when visiting the URLs while the same live streams are correctly played in plugin.video.youtube.
Note that I select only the URLs with an mpd container, that Mpeg-dash is activated in the youtube plugin and that inputstream.adaptative is installed.

Do you know what I need to do to resolve this? Does plugin.video.youtube is registered to the youtube API in order to access the content of the resolved URL?

Sorry, if I was not clear.
Thanks

@sergey_s Thanks for confirming.

@DjDiabolik I cannot reproduce this, looks like an issue with the 'More...' string. I changed my interface and add-on to Italian and still no issue here. May want to try a reinstall (don't need to reset settings).

@Divocul
Using plugin url streams:

Code:

import xbmc
plugin_url = 'plugin://plugin.video.youtube/play/?video_id=RtU_mdL2vBM'
xbmc.executebuiltin('PlayMedia(%s)' % plugin_url)

Using youtube_resolver:

If that doesn't help and you have your code online somewhere, point me to that and I can try to assist further.

@anxdpanic  I have used your gist and it works great!! Thanks!

[meNick]

Update (7:00PM CT): I posted the message below but as of now everything is back to normal. I am leaving the post because I'm wondering why so much trouble with live streams. Or maybe it is just me (?) -- would be great to know.

Original post:
Something's happened to live streams... the one's I was looking at (Fox News Live) no longer work
I know live streams expire after a certain amount of time. I mean I can't get any valid new ones.
_PLUS_ doing a search for new live streams using Beta6 do not return them as before.
Also did a search for other live streams and am not getting correct results.

To be fair, I reverted to version 5.5.1 and am getting the same result,
reinstalled Beta6 but same problem, so the problem could be Youtube and not the Kodi Youtube addon.

Anyone else having trouble as of 12:45 PM Central time (or later)?
If it is YouTube and not the Kodi addon does anyone know what is going on?

[anxdpanic]

@meNick The channel that you were getting the live streams from was K Media / K Media News, if you look on the web they no longer have any live streams.

@asplundj @nickr This update adds Purchases, at this stage I wouldn't buy/rent with the expectation that it will work but if you have purchased content already.

I've updated post #2 with beta7

• [chg] remove dash_support_addon and dash_support_builtin
  
• [chg] only automatically remove temp folder at start-up
  
• [fix] playback title encoding (introduced in v6 test versions)
  
• [add] Purchases
  • don't buy/rent with the expectations that it will work
    
  • support is incomplete, wip
    
  • requires inputstream.adaptive >= 2.0.28
    
  • YouTube includes resolutions that are not available, currently to work around this;
    • set InputStream Adaptive -> Settings -> Stream selection -> manual
      
    • change video stream during playback to preferred working resolution
      
  • Android plays only first 5 minutes
    
  • huge thanks to peak3d

Hi,

i use kodi to cast video to dlna device. I have a issue when i cast dash video because the url proxy http://192.168.1.4:1490/%25/5B41CC2D8D2C...DRv2_M.mpd is not recognized. 
Is there an alternative solution to view video ?

[grendizer]

Hello, about version 6, I would like to know if it is now possible to login with a Google account (instead of a Youtube account) ? Thanks

[DjDiabolik]

@anxdpanic 
On 6.0.0beta 7 possibly bugged "Search" Feature:
When you try to do a "New Search" and input a new search strings you obtain the search result (and the strings as been added to history correctly) but at this point when you try to access on next page of search result you reobtain the popup of virtual keyboard ask to you to re-insert the search strings.

[anxdpanic]

@rkpisanu disabling dash in the add-on is the only thing I can think of atm

@grendizer I believe it will partially work, my subscriptions, saved playlists, purchases and finding the watch later id will likely not work though

@DjDiabolik Should be fixed in beta8

I've updated post #2 with ~beta8

~beta8
[add] relevanceLanguage to search requests
[fix] mpeg-dash proxy with multi-profiles
[fix] new search pagination

Yeah... it's great

Meantime last night i have follow a live stream whit my Pi2... about 5 hours (exactly 4hours and 49 minutes) whitout any problems. My only things it's enabled the dash and enabled the proxy and all it's works for all time whitout any problems whit latest version of OSMC.
I only see one things:
The timings say to me ever the duration setted at 4 hours and i see the time says 01,02,03 seconds and reset to 00:00:00 but the stream goes whitout interruption.......
It's problably a dash.. i don't have idea what's my currect version

*EDIT*
I have a question:
On preferences of dash... when i enabled the dash and his proxy i see there's present one voices says "Install dash helper" or somethigs similar ? What's it's this things ? It's needed on my currect setup ?
