Been having problems with the odd YouTube link within XBMC as controlled directly (by keyboard or IR remote) and getting that annoying "Playback failed - couldn't locate video URL" error when forwarding YouTube links via an Android phone.
I'll try the PY file swap in a minute but in the meantime: the odd thing is, not that long along ago the official XBMC Android remote icon would come up when selecting a YouTube link from Plume as an option - I could open it via phone's browser, phone's YouTube app or the third option on the list, "Send to XBMC" with the official XBMC remote app icon next to it. Now that option is gone and I had to install Yatse to get it back. Is there some or other setting within the official XBMC remote app that needs to be changed to allow forwarding links to XBMC? The XBMC version is v12 Frodo stable on a Windows 7 based Revo R3610 HTPC, the phone is running CM7.2 (aka rooted Gingerbread).
How hard can it be I wonder...
