RE: YouTube v5.X.X - KODI 14.X Helix - jmh2002 - 2015-05-20

Super Favourites was working all ok with YouTube previously but there have been recent updates to that AddOn too. I already posted in the SuperFavourites thread this morning and the developer is looking into it.

Not sure why there is a flurry of posts here about it now...

Hi

I'm stuck on Frodo 12.3 !! (XP system)
Recently the Youtube addon returns results from Youtube saying the device is no longer supported. I loaded in the new 5.1.3 (KODI) addon, registered twice and I can now play videos...but I cannot use the search function, as this returns a script error. Everything else works fine, like channels, subscriptions etc, but without a Search feature these are not that usefiul.
I know it's a very old system but Frodo is all I can use at the moment so can anyone help restore the youtibe Search feature for me?

Thanks a lot for any help,

Sorry...but I moved on with the API and minimum is Gotham. It gets complicated to support 3 platforms at the same time if the API changes.

Ditch XP. Use something else like OpenELEC. You can even try it live from a USB stick and not disturb your hard drive in any way.

Exciting news!! Thanks.

Hi, is there any way to have the addon remember which view I have chosen in skin? I am using Arctic Zephyr and every time I go into the addon, then to My Subscriptions it lands on a default view I can't stand. Nothing else in the skin behaves this way, always views are remembered otherwise. Thanks for a great addon and any help with this Smile

Has there been any progress on "My Subscriptions" pagination? This plugin is great but somewhat hampered due to not being able to see all my subscriptions. The old plugin managed it I guess via screen scraping.

Sorry for this post, I just found others have already asked and I am sure you are sick of the question. So its still a bug in the API that can't be worked around?

Do you mean apart from the "Override View" settings on the Advanced Tab of YouTube settings... ? I set my desired view codes here and it works perfectly.

Hi there

I am using this addon for kodi. But I can't seem to use some of the features. Like "Liked videos" is just showing nothing, the same with "Subscriptions", the thing I can do is to search for songs. What can I do ? I am using the 5.1.3 update.

Disable the override view in the addon settings.

There is a workaround with a overhead. The overhead is in my opinion not worth it for a long run - because the API has to work and not the other way around.

Is your G+ account connected with YouTube? In some rare cases you need at least one channel (your channel) and even if it's private or invisible.

YouTube/Google has done some strange things with this API...sometimes I think this was a students job or some kind of. The APIv3 is a mess ConfusedBig Grin

Yeah I think it is connected to my YT account. (not sure how to see that). I am using the Kodi on an Boxee Box, if that's anything to do with it. Smile
