My point was that going and complaining to Google could make the situation even worse.

@jdig4240
It's still usable for trailers, strm, playlists, and sharing from remotes. Essentially anything that uses plugin://plugin.video.youtube/play/?video_id=<video id> will work without api keys.

Ahh, ok. I get it.

It only does it for 1 url at a time though I personally would like something that can generate strm files from a youtube playlist.

But the basic of the issue is this: At seemingly random times, a Youtube video will finish playing and go back to the subscribed videos page and Kodi will immediately crash. No error message, no crash notification (though there IS a Windows error report in the event logs). I also have a crashlog/dmp file, but because it's not an ASCII file I can't paste it into paste.kodi.tv, so I'm not sure what to do with it.
This happens on multiple versions of the Youtube add-on, as well as multiple versions of Kodi (specifically I can say for sure that's been happening on both 18.6 and 18.7). I'm using the default Estuary skin. Included add-ons include: Netflix, Twitch, Disney+, Youtube, Amazon Prime, Up Next
I've looked at the Issues page on the git for the add-on but haven't seen anything and I've done numerous searches for the problem but nothing seems to match.
I wish I could provide more information, but while it happens regularly in the sense that it's at least once every day or two, I could watch dozens and dozens of Youtube videos in Kodi with no problem in a row and then suddenly it'll crash.
If you have any questions at all regarding this, I'll answer to the best of my ability. Likewise, if you have any ideas as to how I can force the problem to happen with a debug log running, I'm open to anything.
Thanks!

On Linux it's usually in the home directory of the user that runs kodi, and the filename looks something like "kodi_crashlog-20200307_214646.log".
I'm not sure about any other platform, and I don't know how useful the information in the file is, but it might be something if you're struggling to capture the logs for the problem.

@AndrewJC
It appears to be caused by 2 busy dialogs occurring (known issue in Kodi 18-19), disable Settings - General - Refresh after watching if it's enabled.
Not much else I can do to resolve it currently, sorry.
@shedrock
They appear to be working here, might be a temporary issue on their end atm? If you have multiple accounts at activation, might be worth checking pid2955583 and the post following it.
