Who do I have to pay to fix this login problem?
I have this shiny new HTPC and I can't use it because Youtube login doesn't work... I tried everything, I even created a new youtube account especially for this, but all was in vain. I have made a very big investment in this setup instead of going the Smart TV route and you can imagine it is very frustrating.
Or can anyone make a simple light version of the addon that does not require a login with a google account and just displays the videos from a list of channels, just like the subscriptions from the main youtube addon.
Please help me or point me to the right direction at least.
This is what I am getting with the brand new Youtube account I created just for XBMC:
