How can I edit that file on RP2? can I use putty? I'm using openelec
cd ~/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.youtube/resources/lib/youtube/client
I checked my RPi2 (slightly different path) and that looks like directory not a file, these are the files below....
__init__.py __init__.pyo login_client.py login_client.pyo youtube.py youtube.pyo

Source: https://github.com/kolinger/plugin.video.youtube
ZIP: https://github.com/kolinger/plugin.video.youtube/releases/download/5.1.17/plugin.video.youtube-5.1.17.zip
Installation - install from zip or replace files directly in addons folder. Then just logout from youtube and log back. If there was still issue with quota/unknown kind then logout and login again. Every login a random credentials are chosen/propably new pool is chosen.
I did this on three machines and it worked first time on each one. After you installed 5.1.17, logged out and pressed login, did it generate 2 activation codes for youtube.com/activate ?

Yes, i was asked to generate 2 activation codes for youtube.com/activate

thank you it works! mine is slightly different, instead of
/home/osmc/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.youtube/resources/lib/youtube/client
it at
/home/pi/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.youtube/resources/lib/youtube/client
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-02-18
Try deleting the $KODI/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube directory. that would keep all your settings in there so it would act like it had never ran before.
$KODI being where ever your kodi's profile directory is.

Thanks Jeff for quick reply, I am testing this on OpenELEC on USB stick.
I found another folder with youtube name so deleted that also....
/media/hugh/Storage/.kodi/addons/script.module.youtube.dl
/media/hugh/Storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube
EDIT: I did the install from zip, navigate to 'plugin.video.youtube-5.1.17.zip' file and it installed ok
I then signed in but got same message again... Exception in ContentProvider, Unknown Kind"
Is there anything I have missed?

use the addons folder not the userdata

I removed both folders and did a fresh install, using Add-ons > install from zip file > plugin.video.youtube-5.1.17.zip
Is that the correct method? Thanks for your help on this, it's much appreciated.

1) Log out
2) uninstall
3) delete folder
4) install
5) Do not start, go to Config Addon and click on Setup-Assistent, start Addon and do the Activation twice.
Everything will work fine if you do it this way.

I think so, you have to go to the third category in Configure "advanced" and there is an option to run Setup-Assistant. Im running KODI on german language, sorry if you have other expressions, but setup assistant must be anyware and it is important for doing the new activation.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - Old Grey Beard - 2016-02-19
Greetings ladies and gentlepeoples! I'm new here and I've been using Kodi on my FireTV stick for almost a year without any issues until yesterday.
I've been all over the interwebz for a solution, but I haven't found one. The issue is with the youtube add-on. When I try to go to "subscriptions" I get "exceptions in ContentProvider Unknown kind"". This is rather frustrating. Any help is very much appreciated.

Read the last pages in this thread, you will find a solution ;-) (Load the fixed Version .17 and follow my steps)
