Release [depricated] old YouTube Plugin - XBMC 13.0 Frodo/Gotham only
They've moved their repository: https://github.com/HenrikDK/youtube-xbmc-plugin

To get the plugin into the official XBMC repository they have to submit it to the https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/list...bmc-addons mailing list. The xbmc-addons guys then either update the repository or reject the plugin with instructions on what needs to be fixed.

Henrik has submitted version 3.4.2/4.4.2 twice in the past couple of days (also includes fix for search when using unicode characters). Maybe next time it'll get in.
People have been asking me for a Donate button, so if you want to buy me a drink > here it is <
SuperRepo included the fixed version 4.4.2 already.
Hello,
i have raspberry pi and installed on top OpenELEC distribution and XBMC.
I have installed Youtube plugin and logged with no problems in my YouTube account.
I can see thumbalans on all videos, but when I try to play a video I have message :

Playback failed.
Couldn't locate video url

Anyone can help me with that ?

I can see he has had a couple of problems getting it accepted, hopefully next time :-)

Are you real? The entire discussion around your post is about that.

welcome to the forum. a lot of people have had this problem. there is a new version of the youtube addon available that fixes the issue. there is a link to the new version in this discussion thread in a post from a few days ago.

post back if you have any problems finding it or installing it. the version that is downloaded from the xbmc repositry within xbmc is still not fixed so you need too find the post with the addon zip file in it and go to xbmc and "install from zip".

Addon was just updated in the repo, tried a few videos, working OK, no issues so far.

So far most videos are working fine with v4.4.2, but have you tried it with any age-restricted content? I'm still getting the same error: "Cannot locate video URL". Anyone else?
I am on Eden, initially no, they were not working, I received the same error 'Couldn't locate' as you indicate, but after doing the steps I outlined some post back It's now working OK.

Quote:For some reason, to get it to work, the plugin requires that you re-login by modifying you username twice:

1. change the username it to something wrong,
2. (try to) login (with wrong username)
3. change the username back
3. login (with correct username)

Just trying to login again will not work, you actually have to get a failed login to get it to "reset".

After this age restricted videos will play when logged in without issue, at least on my Eden setup.

I am having trouble playing epic rap battles, so I think this is the same problem you are having.

I tried to update it to 3.4.1b but... can't install it.. Update to "Frodo" is also no option due to another problem..
Any Ideas, any solutions?

I have the same problem. I think its because the Eden build isn't updating the repositories correctly and therefore the dependencies which need to be in place haven't been downloaded and can't be downloaded. I have no idea how to correct the problem though.
