RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-03-21
Sure no problem, I added another shortcut to see how it goes. Look at your favourites.xml and see if it reflects the correct URL?
i believe its in $KODI/userdata/
Also would you mind letting me know which channel you are adding to your favorites? I want to see if i can reproduce it in any way.
Also What OS/Kodi Version and Skin are you running.
Thanks
Jeff

Thanks for trying to look into my issue. For the moment I totally remade the shortcut to favourites and to the skin, and I will see how this goes.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jmh2002 - 2016-03-21
The channel I am using is Ukraine Today (https://www.youtube.com/user/UKRAINETODAYLive/videos?app=desktop). However I don't think that it makes any difference (but there are regular daily updates to this channel so it's a good test)
I have had this problem on occasion in the distant past too. Something seems to break from time to time.
The OS doesnt matter, I have both Windows and iOS with the same issue. Kodi version is 16, or 16.1 and skin is Xonfluence.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-03-21
ok that will give me an idea with what to look for.
The OS/Kodi Version and Skin version is so i can replicate it on my end. are you using win 10 or win 7, 8, 8.1?
Thank you,
Jeff

RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-03-21
ok let me make sure i'm getting this straight.
What you are saying is, when you add your channel to your favorites and you open your favorites and click on the channel, it loads a cached version of the Page?
Am I correct?

Yes... exactly..... but apparently you have already notified this same situation but i don't understand if it's a add-on "bug" or if it's a osmc bug......

Unfortunately Kolifanes is the repo keeper at the moment and doesn't maintain the plugin. (if i'm wrong Kolifanes please let me know). At this point you will have to bare with up as we are trying the best we can.
If you could do me a favor and post a debug log Log_file (wiki) even if you've posted one in the past and we'll see if we can figure it out. I'm sorry about the delay but we're just keeping it going until a new developer steps forward.
Also tell me when it stopped working and what version of kodi you were using.
Thank you for your patience.

These just end up taking over if you subscribe to them and you miss your other videos.
In any case I can confirm the same issue now unfortunately with regards to not refreshing properly. Hopefully it can be resolved in due course.
@Kolifanes
Would you please be able to take a look at this issue when you get a moment please? I believe it started with v5.1.20.4
THANK YOU
This is a very old issue going back to XBMC Frodo and I don't know what version of the youtube addon.
I do the same thing here, since it seemed that the YouTube addon would not allow me to access all my subscribed channels, I added a bunch of them to Kodi favorites and then created shortcuts on the skin I use (Currently MQ6, but the same with MQ5) A lot of these are daily news channels. If i would start Kodi up and go to watch a channel, it would show the current list. But if Kodi has been running for days and I go to watch that channel the next day, the new videos are not listed. To work around this, on my setup, hitting the backspace key takes me to a page that lists youtube options, I select subscriptions then the channel I want and it comes back with new videos on the list. I never complained about it, thought it might have been a youtube limitation, just got used to the workaround.
So this might take some digging.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jmh2002 - 2016-03-22
The problem has come and gone over various periods. Nobody is complaining, we are just trying to help troubleshoot the issue.
The channels are saved in my youtube search, and if i access them in that way, I get the updated list. So it does seem to be some kind cached/not refreshing issue when it comes to favourite links.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-03-22
yeah same here, the favourites.xml still says /channel/blah so i would have to look into how it's saved. It might be an issue with how the plugin launches from the favorites.
I'll have to tinker for a while.
thx for the info.
Jeff
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - DjDiabolik - 2016-03-23
@jmh2002 and @jdf76......... at this point you suggest to maintain the channellID inside the favourites.xml or you suggest to use the usernameID (i know some channel don't use the usernameID or it's be hidden in some mode) ?
I know when you add to favourites a channel after using the search feature the ChannellID has been added on favourites.xml..... on my i have add both
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - jdf76 - 2016-03-23
Honestly i don't know. This is something that needs to be looked into by someone who is more familiar with python than I am at the moment. I'm going to do what i can to try and figure it out, but i can't guarantee anything at this point.

Hey Jeff, Misty,
Will try to reproduce with v17 & Confluence.
I'll keep you in touch.

I wonder if this is a Kodi 17 nightly on Windows OS problem. I just downloaded the latest Mac OS Kodi 17 nightly and had no problem running YouTube (5.1.20.5) add-on with the new Estuary skin. I also loaded Confluence skin and YouTube add-on worked no problems. I know Bromix has a module named view_manager.py which has several skin menu view ID parameters. Maybe Estuary menu view IDs need to be added? But just to re-iterate, I had no crashes on my Mac (OS X 10.7.5) with Kodi 17 latest nightly with either Estuary or Confluence skins. Have you tried loading Confluence and using YouTube? Maybe that will help to narrow down whether this is a skins issue.

Actually have the same crash problem with the last version of youtube addon 5.1.20.4 with Kodi v17 & the new skin.
Here is a crash log.

Not an expert but think the issue is in theses lines :
Seems that the extension doens't return correctly the directory list for the new skin.
NB : Tried to erase addon config before reproducing the issue to be sure.

RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - Spidored - 2016-03-23
Yep, this isn't a Skin issue. Crash also with Confluence on V17.
Will try on another W10. Maybe it's my HTPC wich in cause (but don't think so)
EDIT : Work on a fresh install. I uninstall (profile also deleted) and did a fresh install it correct the issue.

RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - Kaskade - 2016-03-24
Hi.
I have problems with vids tagged as inappropiate.
I have followed instructions from here : http://bestforkodi.com/fix-the-youtube-kodi-addon/ and now I have v1.20.4
All I get, when I try to run a vid tagged as inappropiate, is a message regarding it may be inappropiate for some users, and nothing else occurs.
I'm using Openelec Milhouse, last version, and Kodi 16.0 BETA3 on a Raspberry Pi 2B.
I'm attaching a log also, as soon as I learn how to do it. -> http://pastebin.com/download/QqRthtmQ
Thanx a lot in advance!
