Any help will be appreciated.

Try download the newest version from

https://github.com/Kolifanes/plugin.video.youtube/releases/download/5.1.20.4/plugin.video.youtube-5.1.20.4.zip

it's a direct link. The link i put in the post didn't point to the file just to his releases repo. If this doesn't work, i would suggest waiting for the official Kodi Repository to update.

I hope this helps you, if it doesn't then you will need access to a computer.

Thank you,
Jeff

Also, i figured out why youtube streaming has stopped. It appears that youtube is using a different format tag for the livestreams. I was getting errors with the message "unknown yt_format for itag 91" in logs, so I looked to see if i could fix it myself.

I found in /resources/lib/youtube/helper/video_info.py the list of video formats youtube will use, and copied the block starting on line 137

Code:

'92': {'container': 'ts',
               'Live': True,
               'title': 'Live@240p',
               'sort': [240, 0],
               'video': {'height': 240, 'encoding': 'h.264'},
               'audio': {'bitrate': 48, 'encoding': 'aac'}},

and pasted it right after, changing the starting ID number to what the log files were complaining about, so

Code:

'91': {'container': 'ts',
               'Live': True,
               'title': 'Live@240p',
               'sort': [240, 0],
               'video': {'height': 240, 'encoding': 'h.264'},
               'audio': {'bitrate': 48, 'encoding': 'aac'}},

Saved, zipped, slapped onto kodi, and youtube streaming is functional again.

If this can get passed on to whoever is working on picking up the plugin, I'm sure this will make a lot of people happy. Not the cleanest fix i'm sure, but it's been working well for me for the past 6 streams i've tested, and the past half hour or so of stream watching.

Is that needed for "normal" users of the addon?

Or can we just go ahead and update.
I can´t login to youtube on my PI.
I have a clean PI with openelec 6.0.3

//Thanks

The add-on can be used without login (I'm guessing that's how you want to use it), you are good to go. Latest feature allows users with their own API key a way to change the API key used by the add-on without digging into the code to make changes, that is all.
