Purchased via YouTube isn't supported (the API is missing this feature) or you're mistaken YouTube with Google Movies which is a complete different service. Subscriptions will (mostly) only work if you have connected your G+ and YouTube account.
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - umanbean - 2015-05-05
OK Thanks for explaining , much appreciated
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - Epg1 - 2015-05-06
Hi,
I'm using your youtube plugin and it works as expected but the thumbnails are shown with some delay.
For example, if do a search, it works well and the results are displayed without the thumbnails: they appear (in grops of two or more) only after some time. If I click a thumbnail, the video starts and the playing is fine.
If necessary, I'll post a full log when I'm home.
My hardware / sw configuration: Raspberry pi 2, OSMC OS, Wifi TP-LINK adapter and a proper power supply.
Thank you.
Epg1.

Not a problem of the addon.
The first problem is the server of YouTube - this is why the addon sometimes hangs at the beginning. I don't know why, but the resolving of the URLs of the thumbs is slow.
The second thing it the local system on which KODI is operating - on my developer machine the thumbs take only 1-2 seconds....on my HTPC the thumbs take 5-10 seconds (in both test-cases for 1 page with 50 items).

I read through the thread and can't find the solution to my problem.
When i'm trying to sign in I get a popup telling me I need to enable two applications so that Youtube is functioning properly, What applications?
When I clicked on ok I got another popup telling me I need to go to youtube.com/activate and type in a code. Seeing I can't go to youtube.com while Kodi is running I closed Kodi used Firefox to go to youtube.com/activate and type in the code. After restarting Kodi I still get those two popups. What am I doing wrong?

You have to keep KODI running - go on the web (and if you even use your phone or tablet) and enter each code - after that YouTube will be running just fine. On what system you're operating?!?!!

First I had Kodi running and logged in using a laptop in the the same LAN. I'm running WIN 7 Professional on both PC's.
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - bromix - 2015-05-06
Just press ALT+TAB to switch from KODI to the desktop
do it 2 times (to enter each code) and you're done 
It's the same procedure for today's smart-TVs (it's the same mechanism)

I managed to get it after typing in two different codes on my smartphone.
Thanx for your help.

Yeah
nice to hear you're welcome.
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - misc123 - 2015-05-07
Not sure if this had been asked and answered before.
Is it possible to play the next video automatically within channels?
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - nickr - 2015-05-07
Context menu, play from here.
RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - jaraeez - 2015-05-07
Hey, Just installed this addon (thank you) & was wondering if there is an option to pick what quality resolution when playing (ex: 720, 480 etc) instead of having to say in the settings. I was thinking something like 'ask' then I choose.
TIA
EDIT:
I know you can "Via context menu: "Add-on settings" -> "General: Video Quality" though I was after it asking me when I click play on a vid (like the old YT plugin)

Thank you for your quick answer.
However, I can only see "Play only this" " Queue video" but no "play from here" in context menu.
Also I prefer to play from the newest video every time I click into the channel.
Is it possible?
Thanks.

I didn't added the "ask-option" again. Is this really needed or only a question because it's missing?
