Even though nobody else seems to have encountered the bug where dates are all 11/30/65535 or 7/03/7080, it turns out this is a bug in Kodi with Ubuntu 15.10. The bug will be fixed in Jarvis beta5.

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/8620

Unfortunately there are no nightly builds of Jarvis, only Krypton, so if you want this fix without going to Kodi v17 you'll need to compile it yourself. I'm just gonna wait, myself.

One request is one request for information. It's 100% self explanatory.

This addon just doesn't work properly for me. Sometimes i can see all the options, like "watch later" etc. Other times there are very few options and most of them give me an "unknown kind" or "exceeded limit" error. I updated to the latest version of the plugin, tried restarting, tried reloging but it still doesn't work. The only way it may work is to try again next day and hope that it works. Sometimes it does but it's completely random.

That is because the it uses APIs to get the data and it has daily limits.

see nickr's post if you want a simple explanation.

thx


RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - Imgema - 2016-01-04

Ok thanks guys.

So what i'm getting is that as the plugin is used by more people, it becomes less usable?


RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - thetazzbot - 2016-01-04

Seems like the solution here is to make the API keys a configuration item and require users to register to get their own, then they will never have any problems.


RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - rodalpho - 2016-01-04

A much more user-friendly solution is to create a bunch of API keys (like, 1000) and upon each user's first time signing in, randomly pick one key from that pool to use forever.

But in lieu of that, yeah, I would love to be able to use my own keys without being forced to text-edit a python script every time the addon updates. Although since the youtube addon is no longer in development, I guess updates overwriting edits may not be a huge problem any more.

Think lots of people have it, it's in all the Jarvis builds I've tried, beta or otherwise.

I noticed this on 17.xx Kodi builds, go back to 16/Jarvis.

RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - soupboy - 2016-01-06

Not sure what I'm done wrong here. Might be because I'm running the latest Raspberry Pi Openelec Builds which are based on the master (kodi 17?)

I've setup api's etc and changed them in the login.py and can search and use my subscriptions fine but when I go to playlists I get a popup saying

The request uses the <code>mine</code> parameter but .... (can't see the rest as it disappears before I see it)

Same thing happens in My Channels -> Playlists

Any ideas?
