Hello folks,
I made a video addon for the dutch tech video site Tweakers (http://www.tweakers.net)
It's available as a video addon in the official kodi repo. So you can install it as a video addon: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_add-ons
If you got problems with the addon, just reply here with a link to a kodi log file (here are the instructions to make a logfile with kodi: http://kodi.wiki/view/Log_file/Easy ).
Enjoy.
v1.1.10 (2018-10-01)

The error occured when doing urllib.parse.parse_qs of the parameters
- using youtube now (website change)
- removed video quality setting as the youtube addon is used
v1.1.9 (2018-01-12)
