Release YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST)

Does anyone know what kind of API key or client auth (or combination of it?) I have to create in the Google Developer Console to make this request also work?

Quoting myself from 10 or so pages back. This is actually related to all the people having trouble with their own keys and "My Subscriptions" not working.

The "youtube-tv" key seems to be different from the others and an API v3 key does not seem to work here. So if we could find out what kind of key is used there, we could use our own keys and "My Subscriptions" will still work.

I personally still use bromix's key for "youtube-tv" for the time being.
Thanks a million to who ever fixed this - I was lost without it!

For the record the only thing that worked for me was to uninstall, delete the locally stored YouTube folder as described a few posts back, reboot and then reinstall.

My subscriptions us working ad usual again.

I owe someone a beer
On RPi2 / Isengard / OSMC

Mine updated to 5.1.15d. I found that after it upgraded, I was able to change the follow section's API keys, client IDs, and Secrets with my own that I created on https://console.developers.google.com/apis. Doing so, fixed accessing "Popular", "My Channel" Etc... now are working:

1. youtube-quota
2. osmc-kodi15 (or whatever version you are using)
3. osmc-fallback
4. youtube-tv

Adding your own keys in those sections, along with the additional keys that were added to the script should get everything working nicely.

I've noitced that when you uninstall the youtube plug-in the addon_data stays around

You need to make sure you remove the userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube folder then you should be able to restart youtube setup from scratch.

I have two questions for you, first, is your "My Subscriptions" page working with your current setup? And if so my second question is related to hanfgnu2k's post above yours which I also quoted here asking which Google API's you have activated since the Youtube v3 API alone doesn't seem to work for My Subscriptions for many of us here.

Thanks for any help you can give me with this issue.

I did the same but the "My Subscriptions" doesn't work. Using the "subscriptions" selection isn't the same because there you get all the channels while in the "My subscriptions" you only get the updates from your channels (which is the most useful for me)

Thanks

No, thank you dude, no reason to apologize.

We are talking about the same thing, it's simply that on your setup, it doesn't appear you've setup unique profiles as I have.

I follow you now.

ALTHOUGH, the only thing I had to do on my Kodi-auto-updated YT version (5.1.17) was to logout, restart, log back in and everything began working, except the one category, "Live".

HOWEVER today, I am getting "Bad Request" again upon "Search" and have to repeat my command multiple times to get it to go through.

Again, only "Live" doesn't work at all ("Project marked for deletion"), *AND*
"My Subscriptions" does work fine for me in this scenario.

I would like to know, where I could download a copy of 5.1.16 so perhaps I can start fresh and make my own keys.

For some reason, there's no "Rollback" available on *any* of my addons-- don't know why.

If only subscription shows and error notify "API is not enough...", API key is not enabled using Youtube API.
There is a links for youtube on first left-side menu page.

The problem for me is that I can't uninstall Youtube cause it is connected with other addons too and Kodi refuses to uninstall it.Is there anything else to do?
Update some generated API keys in script. Hope it helps. kodi 15/16/17 (on my repo, kodi 16/17 only)

I had to uninstall the addons that used YouTube before I could uninstall YouTube.

Thank you, this worked like a charm.

You can just disable them, much less of a hassle than uninstalling them and then installing them again..
Could someone knowledgeable in the kinds of API keys needed perhaps create a simple python script that walks through the steps to create all the api keys necessary? If possible it could open the Google API url in the right place, tell the user what options to select and then let them paste the generated key back into the terminal.

At the end the python script could spit out a keys.py file containing the correct variable definitions for the keys that could be copied into the youtube plugin directory in kodi, and the main youtube plugin could be modified to try and import this file if it exists.

First uninstall the youtube addon in Kodi

Exit Kodi

Download (using firefox or chrome, I checked both and worked) http://offshoregit.com/finalmakerr/Fixed...5.1.17.zip (then move it to your addon folder: C:\Users\*****\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons)

Go to your addon_data folder: C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data

Delete the youtube addon file 'plugin.video.youtube'

Startup Kodi

Go in to settings, then addons, then install from zip file and choose the file you downloaded earlier

and from there you should be set (you will have to sign in again and do the two step authentication process)

this is what worked for me (but still no my subscriptions) but for now its better than nothing!

hope that helps

5) Do not start, go to Config Addon and click on Setup-Assistent, start Addon and do the Activation twice.

Everything will work fine if you do it this way.

Thanks Marriol123343 this works for me. Rofl
The activation is done via a web browser with this URL http://youtube.com/activate
REMEMBER Twice (2 times) addon will give a code to activate in browser.


Using it now.... But 1 question How to watch in 1080p? I only see 720p maximum vids.
