First post says that the add-on is "designed to be updated by dropping in the youtube-dl core without modification".

I'm unsure how to do that - can somebody explain please?

It's not really meant to be an end user thing. I'll update the core

Hi,

I use youtube-dl to get the url for google drive as follows:
     url = 'https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6*************/view'
     vid = YDStreamExtractor.getVideoInfo(url,quality=0)
     stream_url = vid.streamURL()
youtube-dl return a "correct" stream_url but KODI DVDPlayer cannot play it and throw an exception.

Looks like a transcoded version fetched and you need a DRIVE_STREAM cookie set to playback.  403 = no cookie set, not authorized for playback.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi @ruuk I have allowed myself to create the Spanish language for your addon. Oh by the way it would be interesting to be able to add strings of "control.py" to "string.po" in English and Spanish. There are elements that are displayed on the screen to the user that are not in the file "string.po" for English.

I have made one pull request on GitHub.

Regards

[ruuk]

Thanks, I'll look at merging it in soon.

Hi, and thanks for this great add-on!

Love the ability to send any video link to Kodi through something like https://github.com/firsttris/plugin.video.sendtokodi.

But the best thing would be to have it integrated into the core URL resolver of Kodi. No need for passing a addon:// ... Done some googling for feature requests etc. Why isn't people talking about this? It's obvious. I have no idea what the devs  think about this - probably a big No, because it's too much loose parts. So I was looking at hacking something together just for fun, but realized Kodi is C++. As a Python hobbyist the only thing I can tell is putting some naughty code into xbmc/cores/VideoPlayer/Videoplayer.cpp should do it...

Is there some more discussing about this going on anywhere?

Is it possible to set a custom output filename?
For example from listitem?

Since updating to Kodi 18 beta's i have been unable to get this to work. Every time i ask to download a video it starts, immediately stops & doesn't download anything.

This is what is in the log.
