When I initiate a download, the destination file is created with a size of 0 bytes, and it stays that way.Hi as far as I can tell that seems to be an incomplete log, please post a full log with debug enabled in the plugin. From the log It doesn't seem to begin downloading. Also an incomplete debug log makes it very hard for me to get a complete picture of the situation (ex what OS are you using, which folder are you trying to save to, etc, etc)
The debug log says the following when I initiate the download:
Loc2262 Wrote:Second issue:What skin are you using?
The skin's view mode is always reset to the default mode when I jump from one directory to another when browsing through Youtube.
E.g. I choose one of my subscriptions, get the first page of videos. I set the view mode from "Thumbnails" to "Wide list" to be able to read the full video names. I choose "More results", and the next page is displayed as Thumbnails again. This happens with all skins I tried and is - sorry - very annoying.
From the known problems section on the homepage
Quote:Known problems¶
One of the main features of the plugin is that it defaults to thumbnails view for video items. This only works when using the default "Confluence" skin as the plugin is dependent on the Id defined for confluences thumbnails view.
It should be noted that we already created a trac ticket on resolveing this problem (search the thread for the ticket ID if the details matter to you ) but the devs need time to figure out a proper fix an as such it won't be solved in time for the release of dharma .
Loc2262 Wrote:Oh, and another thing: Seeking in a Youtube video is, well, not really possible. I can jump back and forth a bit, but only inside what has already been buffered. When I enter e.g. "5:00" in a 10-minute video, playback stops, network activity is still quite high, but it does not jump to 5 minutes right away. This is an issue though I already had with the previous Youtube plugin.
Yeah this seems to be an issue with xbmc's player core and the way youtube handles fastforwading through streems. I have the same problem with most streams though the HD qualities (720p and above) seem to behave much better most of the time .
