Hi

I've been getting the following error on Windows 10 1903 x64 running Kodi 19 (20190813-47fca6b6-master-x64) nightly with latest YouTube plugin pulled from GIT.

Snippet from Kodi debug log :

DEBUG: [plugin.video.youtube] HTTPServer: Failed to start |192.168.10.25:50152| |[Errno 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions|

Debug log : https://paste.kodi.tv/iretepaqax.kodi

I have been having this issue for a couple of weeks but not sure when it started (could have been the Windows update to 1903).

I have tried the following :

Run Kodi as administrator
Add specific firewall rule to allow tcp port 50152
Tried different network address local ip, localhost, 0.0.0.0
Windows defender in use with main Kodi.exe added as an exclusion.
Various Kodi 19 nightly and YouTube plugin alpha/beta/git versions

I have a similar setup running on Ubuntu 18.04 with no problems.

Any ideas/advice on how to investigate this further would be appreciated.

Thanks

Further update on this.

I've tested on a different port, 52520 and this resolves this. What is odd though is that port 50152 is not shown as in use by netstat -an. 

Update 2

Looks like this related to Windows port exclusions blocking the default port 50152 on my pc. 

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> netsh int ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp
Protocol tcp Port Exclusion Ranges
Start Port    End Port
