As far as I know, the plugin works by downloading the video and playing it as a local temporary file (correct me if I'm wrong). I made an experiment and downloaded one video with issues from YouTube via third-party software, resulting in a 360p mp4 file. I played this file on XBMC (Gotham, 13.2, working on an MX Linux), and it plays smoothly and fine. Is it possible that the plugin is using different file format for the data, which triggers the issue with the decoding? If the plugin is providing an mp4 stream in 360, I think we're good.

Go to the Addon-Settings and select for video quality "360p"

Hi!

As this is my first post, i'll introduce myself a bit. I'm Pikoh from Spain, i use kodi in a raspbery pi b+ and i'm a bit new in all this kodi world.

First of all,thank you to Bromix for this great plugin. I know what is like to do something like this for free and people instead of being grateful,just complain as if they were paying for it.


After all this,two questions:

- When can we expect an repository update to solve this vevo issue?
- I'm trying to share some playlists using YATSE. The problem is,if just one video in the playlist is unavailable for any reason (VEVO,region restriction..)
the whole playlist is not loaded. Is there any way to prevent this?

Thanks again and sorry if i made any mistakes,my english is not as good as i'd like it to be

I hope I can finished v5.0.5 for the weekend.
For the playlist - that I can't fix. That's a behavior of XBMC/KODI.

So I understand that currently kodi is unable to decode the seperate DASH video and audio encodes used by certain youtube streams. However, youtube-dl has the ability (using the --merge-output-format FORMAT) to remux the best video and audio streams. Would it be possible for this addon to have the option to perform this command before playing a video to allow kodi to play videos above the 720p resolution?

I'm sure this would be a lot of work to implement, and I'm not sure how quick the remuxing process is (I plan on doing some tests directly with youtube-dl), but this would be a killer feature to have implemented.

Nope - not I can think of. Live mixing would be great, but I think this should be solved on the end of XBMC/KODI (via implementation of a player). DASH will come more and more in the future, because the server can switch the quality of the video while providing the same audio stream (see Netflix, Amazon, Google Movie - they all do it.) So the user won't be bothered with buffered (the video will be of low quality in some parts - but the video will play).

Thanks for the addon, I haven't read the whole thread so it's likely my problem was addressed earlier but I was hoping you could update the faqs.

I was using an older version of the addon that required username and password rather than the new activation scheme and after updating the addon having my username and password in the config file seemed to throw things off (could have been something else in the settings file as after deleting the old one the new one is a fraction of the size). Now working great and hopefully that will continue. Another note is that in advanced settings I don't have a plugin debug option, my old config file had debug=true in it but the new one currently doesn't mention debug.

These notes are true for both 5.0.4 and 5.0.5~beta4 (running on Kodi 14). When I tried to revert from the beta back to stable I couldn't uninstall the plugin because it was in use by url resolver, which I couldn't uninstall because it was used by other plugins. I just removed the plugin directory and was then able to install the old version, but while that could see hadfield's space oddity in my watch later list it couldn't play it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaOC9danxNo.

I'm now back on beta4 and everything is working ok. Thanks again for the great addon.

Sooooo, everything is working, but the debug option is missing?
