Hey Bromix,

Will the plugin be able to show the subtitles from Youtube in the future updates? Old versions used to do this but subs sort of overlapped. Old lines did not disappear, new ones just kept being written on top.

And I also got the plugin installation error and it did not update to 5.0.1 but I will try the solution you suggested in the above posts. Thanks!

Hello, Bromix.

Thanks for the plugin. I wanna ask for subtitles support too.

Thanks.

You're not using KODI or Gotham right? This seems to me a bug in Frodo. Please consider updating at least to Gotham and provide always complete logs.

Hi, I have the same issue and I am using Frodo. The problem is the directory_item image is None. So here's my quick ifx:

if directory_item.get_image() is not None:
item = xbmcgui.ListItem(label=directory_item.get_name(),
iconImage=u'DefaultFolder.png',
thumbnailImage=directory_item.get_image())
else:
item = xbmcgui.ListItem(label=directory_item.get_name(),
iconImage=u'DefaultFolder.png',
thumbnailImage="")

I think the new API might handle the None image but for old API still need to check if it's None image

Hi i am a newbie and am on Frodo having the same issue May i know how to apply the above fix as in which folder/file to edit?

Yes, this code fix the problem. Thanks a lot.
In nearest weeks I have no time to upgrade xbmc (I plan to upgrade the whole system) and this quick fix works well.

To pinelights: you must edit :/home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/plugin.video.youtube/resources/lib/kodion/impl/xbmc/xbmc_runner.py above line 44. (begining of path may be diferent)
At the start of def _add_directory you must replace

Code:

item = xbmcgui.ListItem(label=directory_item.get_name(),
        iconImage=u'DefaultFolder.png',
        thumbnailImage=directory_item.get_image())

withe the code posted by leckylao.
Or perheps in newest version it's done.

Hey there, i am using my PC to send multiple Youtubelinks to Kodis Youtube-Addon, so that i can whatch them one after another without user interaction. I am logged in on my PC and i am logged in the Youtube Addon on Kodi. Is there a way that the watched videos are added to the "Recently watched" list? Sometimes there is a video that i really like and want to send it to others, but i am not sure which one it was because i can't search for it in my watched list.

Thank you

Thks for the help but i decided to just upgrade Frodo to Kodi before you posted and all is fine

This I'm already using...and that's the problem This works on all playlists (even Watch Later)...but not for the History. Thanks for your feedback

Thanks for the info. I have reported it as a problem to Google, hopefully that will help us get a fix

Where and how did you report this?

On the API resource page under the 'connect' heading at the bottom of the page I pressed 'report an issue' and did it that way.

I'm stuck on the 5.0.1 problem package too, using Openelec with Raspberry Pi I have cleared out the cached file but it keeps downloading the broken package.

First of, thanks a lot for a great add-on!

I have a small, perhaps already answered question, is there any way to map next & previous chapter buttons to skip videos back and forth in their entirety? Right now, it just skips short periods, at a time.

Hi,

the "old" plugin had some nifty features like editable search and a download option. Any plans to add ?

Thanks, still a no go for me afraid. Followed info in that post and there was no version number, folder is already named plugin.video.youtube. Tried pulling zip file from https://github.com/bromix/plugin.video.youtube and placing this directly in /addons/packages folder and still came up installation failed, it's like the old file is still on the repo.

If you play videos with 'Play from here' or 'Play all' this will work. But it has nothing to do with the addon itself if next or prev. is working.
