Until 2 days ago I was able to use the YouTube addon's "Live" feature to view live events of all kinds. I could even search for a list of specific live events and then select from the resulting list.
But beginning 2 days ago I can no longer view live streams on YouTube. A selected stream will begin for about 1/2 second then restart and play for about 2 seconds, then freeze. I have confirmed this by reinstalling Kodi 17.6 on Windows 7, on Android 5.1 and on Android 6.1. I also reinstalled the YouTube app and even reinstalled all the way back to November of last year ---- SAME RESULT.
I then went to their web site and tried playing the same streams and all of them played with no problems from my Firefox browser on Windows 7.1.
This is driving me crazy and I really am missing playing YouTube live streams thru Kodi. Any help, suggestion of even a reason for this would be very much appreciated.
UPDATE: After reading and trying post #63 above everything now works for me -- I am grateful for this forum and for members support -- THANKS!
