I was wondering if you can add more search filters to the "Search" function. I believe the default search filter is "Relevance" which works very well in most cases. But if I want to see newly uploaded videos that might be less relevant (or just too new to become relevant), currently I can only "sort by year" to bring those relatively newer results to the top. There's no way I can generate a new set of results based on publish/upload dates.

With a date-based filter, it makes me feel like I'm "subscribing" to my favorite keywords. (One of the Win8 apps "Hyper for YouTube" allows you to kinda do that. On the homescreen, it shows videos from your saved searches with pre-defined filters, like "newly uploaded + HD + long" videos)

Right now I haven't found the best solution for it. The options for the search would need a customized window to provide the settings - I try to prevent this, because of possible problems with skins. This feature is quite complex with all the possible settings/options

I don't understand what you mean - if you mean a can enter a page number to navigate to page 10 - this will not be possible. APIv3 only gives you a page-token for the next page....nothing with page-count and page-index...this results in iterating through each page to collect the token for the next page (someone of google was quite brilliant )

1. Perhaps an add-on wide setting (as opposed to custom options for individual searches) that allows us to specify the default search behavior for all searches (like by Relevance or by Upload Dates) is more feasible?

2. That's a shame. Thank you for the prompt answer

It seems that the YouTube site supports searches with some sort of arguments so we don't have use the UI filters when doing an advanced search.
For example:

Michael Jordan, Today

will return all the MJ Videos uploaded in the last 24 hours. So I tried the same search in the Add-on but it did not work. I suppose the API doesn't allow these types of searches and just interprets the argument as part of the keywords.

Do you have an example...maybe the video-id. Normally the addon should select h264 over vp9, but I need something to test.

I know...this bug was always there...I don't know why...but it's KODI. The routine behind it doesn't create 2 menu entries...if you call the context menu again (after navigating up and down) everything should be ok again.

If possible can you add direct playback via shortcut, similar to the official youtube plugin? for example

Code:

'plugin://plugin.video.bromix.youtube/?path=/root/video&action=play_video&videoid='+url

url == the youtube video id

Can you also suppress any dialog boxes from opening during playback, for example the official youtube plugin would have a "Opening youtube" okdialog box , I would like to either have that removed or not displayed when a xbmc event window is active...

I appreciate your efforts to remove some sluggish features inorder to stream line video playback.

At the moment this should work. If you need a version with the full url, I can add this feature for the next update, but if possible, I would prefer the ID

Code:

'plugin://plugin.video.bromix.youtube/?action=play&id=VIDEO_ID

Which dialogs do you mean exactly?

Thanks, VideoID is just fine, exactly what I need... I'm referring to this dialog box... if you can either disable it all together or disable when a activewindow is true... it would be great
