Add videos sent via remote app to a local history

Hi,
First of all, thanks for this add-on. It's been very useful to me for a long time.

I was thinking it would be useful to have the youtube videos sent from a phone app (I'm using Kore on Android) be added to a Youtube history in Kodi.

Currently, we can go back to previously watched videos in a slightly convoluted way, by going back to the search history and finding the video again.

However, any videos sent from a phone are just played, and then forgotten.

It would be great to be able to maintain a history of these watched videos.
Thanks for considering this!

Cannot connect with YouTube anymore on OpenElec

Hi,

I use your plugin on a Raspi 2 with OpenElec and on my Computer with Kodi 15.1 (Ubuntu 16.04). On my Computer, the plugin works well. On my Raspi, I have several issues:

I cannot login with my YouTube-Credentials. If I do that, your plugin returns an error.

The plugin want to login on plugin-launch. Before this error, I saw that I cannot use several "Account-Features" like using my "Liked Videos" or my "Favorites" etc. After I reboot my Raspi, your plugin doesn't want to work ;)

Removing playlist items causes "Playlist item not found" error

Deleting an item from a playlist or having the plugin auto-remove titles from "Watch Later" will cause a "Playlist item not found" error.

I don't think it produces any errors or warnings in the Kodi log. The only entry that sticks out is "Attempt to use invalid handle -1" but that may have no connection to that issue.

Neither re-installing the plugin nor re-authenticating fixed the issue for me. Maybe the API changed?

Support for "My Mix" and other youtube playlists

For a while now youtube has had "Youtube Mixes" that add music based on your tastes to them. I cannot find a way to start playing these playlist through kodi however. Support for the default on called "My Mix" would be great to have in the Kodi Addon.

720p doesn't buffer anymore after installing certain other youtube addons

Hi,
Youtube plugin used to be working fine for me on 720p. I can also watch 720p videos in Browser just fine.

Kodi 16.1 Jarvis (Git:20160424-c327c53)
Youtube (v5.2.1)

Then I installed these 2 addons:

youtube-dl Control (v16.627.0)
YouTube Download Context Menu (v1.1.0)

And after installing the 2nd addon, 720p no longer plays well. There is some buffering issue.

_360p and lower quality:_

videos still play just fine

_720p:_

Video starts paused
Says "Buffering 1%..." and buffering just continues forever, until the cache size is 100% used up
Pressing play will start playing the video immediately

BUT

Then once buffer end is reached, sound cuts out and video scrambles
Its supposed to auto-pause at this point, and buffer a little more. Doesnt do that.
Have to manually pause / un-pause and intervene when buffer is reached.

THEN:

disabled the extra youtube addons, did not solve anything
un-installed the extra youtube addons, still issue remains

So what could be the issue here? Is there some way I can clear away these addons or associated data and start again? Which addon is responsible? Perhaps it is some addon dependancy shared library, or of different version, which got installed, but was not removed again?

Can't do anything, crash.

DASH support?

Hi @Kolifanes & @jdf76 ,

according to the following thread on the KODI forums:

http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=237356&pid=2285431#pid2285431

it seems like KODI now supports DASH.

Could you please implement DASH support into the plug-in, so that higher resolutions than 720p and higher framerates than 30 fps will be supported?

Regards

Favorites update

when i added youtube channel to the favorites , why not update?new videos added to channels not show in favorites...before it worked

Endless activation request

Hi,

first of all, thanks for your work.
Since yesterday when I start the add-on it asks for activation and to input a code that I see on screen at the url youtube.com/activate.
No matter how many times I follow the procedure and try to complete the activation, I get a notification about some error from youtube and it becomes impossible to perform any search.

Synchronize watched status with youtube (feature-request)

The watched status between youtube website and this kodi plugin are not in sync and do net get updated when I watch a video (in both directions). Syncing this would be a really nice feature.

Certificate Validation Disabled

The software disables certificate validation in several places, allowing an attacker who can modify traffic between the Kodi installation and YouTube to MiTM the connection, and observe and tamper with any information sent or received.

    import sys
    # starting with python 2.7.9 urllib verifies every https request
    if False == verify and sys.version_info >= (2, 7, 9):
        import ssl

        ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context()
        ssl_context.check_hostname = False
        ssl_context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_NONE
        handlers.append(urllib2.HTTPSHandler(context=ssl_context))
        pass

Certificate validation is explicitly turned off for features such as login:

        # url
        url = 'https://www.youtube.com/o/oauth2/token'

        result = requests.post(url, data=post_data, headers=headers, verify=False)
        if result.status_code != requests.codes.ok:
            raise LoginException('Login Failed')

I suspect each instance of verify=False can simply be removed, assuming the system's trust store is properly configured.

Is there any plan to add the "Connect" function. All the smart tv´s are able to handle this, so it will be great to add this function also to your addon.

Livestream doesnt play

i got the issue that a livestream i want to watch doesnt play.
it just displays a loadingcircle for a minute, then plays like 5s of vid and starts loading again.
Its not a connection issue, the stream at the same time on the same pc works fine in a browser

Show option "Unsubscribe from..." instead of "Subscribe to..." if already subscribed

Under "Subscriptions" where all the channels I subscribed to are listed everything works as expected: Opening the context menu of one such channel I get the option to "Unsubscribe". However under "My Subscriptions" where new videos of my subscribed channels are listed, the option "Subscribe to..." is available even though I have already subscribe to this channel (same is true under "Recommendations", not tested in other menues). I would expect to have an option "Unsubscribe from..." if I am already subscribed.

Add support for `Pair device`

Pairing Kodi with PC/Android like SmartTV via https://www.youtube.com/pair would be great feature. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o8RHLLkjSQ)

Add support for library integration

The idea would be that there is a context menu option like "Add to library" which then creates a strm and nfo file in e.g. addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/streams/. I am aware of the youtube library addon, but this addon focuses on integrating playlists/channels like tv shows. My use case is that when I encounter a great video (in my case often documentaries) I want to collect it somehow. Currently I do this by creating these files manually, automating this would be really convenient.

It seems like this should be fairly straight forward to implement and I would like to help. However I have no experience with kodi plugins, your plugin code is quite extensive and I failed to find an "entry point" to start understanding the parts relevant for such a feature. If you can point me to relevant code or to some resource on a "general kodi plugin design" (if it exists, probably not), I may look into it (within time constraints...).

1080p+ and 60fps support

I noticed that live videos on youtube currently play at 1080p,
but there is no way to play standard video at 1080p or larger.
Also 60fps would be swell..

Login fails

I recently updated to your distribution of this plugin (ver 5.2.2), and after activating it worked for about a day and then started failing in the usual ways that are indicative of a login failure. For example, if I go into "My Subscriptions" I get an empty listing.

It always bugged me the way this plugin would encounter login failures and output nothing to the user or the Kodi log, so I started by adding debug logging messages to provider.py and login_client.py. (I'll submit a pull request for this.)

With that done, I could now see the reason why refreshing the access tokens was failing was: anauthorized_client.

According to:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13871982/unable-to-refresh-access-token-response-is-unauthorized-client?answertab=votes#tab-top

this happens when you use different client IDs for the auth and refresh calls. So something is confused in the code.

If I repeat the device authorization process, it works again briefly, then fails the same way.

Thoughts?

On a related note, is there a communication channel (email, IRC, forum) to discuss the internals of this plugin? The forum thread for this plugin wouldn't be appropriate for internals, plus I hate giant forum threads in general as s communication channel. They're like a black hole where information goes to die. Too much work to determine what bugs/issues have already been discussed, so everyone asks the same questions repeatedly, making the thread longer, and further burrying the useful info.

Live stream doesn't work

When attempting to play any YouTube live stream video, the video fails to load and one of the following messages appear:

Youtube error
Check the log for more information.

Playback failed
One or more items failed to play. Check the log for more information about this message.

Log file information in debug mode when attempting to play live stream video:

I find it important to let you know guys.
BTW, great plugin! Thank you very much for it!

feature request: show description and copy video/channel/playlist url

Hi,

first of all. thanks a lot, after selecting a working api key the plugins workes very grate!
but youtube dosent hosts only videos but there are descriptions that you may want to read and that also from your sofa with kodi. So could you please add an option to view the complete video description (and methadata (views, thumbs, datetime of publification) (and klick including links to other youtube videos to play them)

secoundly maybe you want to share the video (channel or playlist) with someone else, so it would be grate if you could view. copy (if your system has a clipboard accessible (mine has because there isnt only kodi on that xserver) and share (maybe show a big qr code) the video easealy without searching for it again from browser.

it would be very grate if you could implement this features
thanks a lot

Crash with Kodi v17

When opening the Youtube ext on Kodi v17 (Build of 2016-03-19) with the new Estuary skin, the app crash completely.

Here is the crash log :
http://pastebin.com/fLBkjMUp

No hardware acceleration on 4k videos

Hello! I use enybox x2 with amlogic s912 processor. Kodi's version is 17b6. YouTube addon – the latest master. When I play video in 4k or 1080p resolution using addon it laggs. When I decode it as downloaded from YouTube single video file (no audio) it plays perfectly in Kodi, Mx Player and even Opera browser. I'm not sure is this a hardware acceleration issue or cache, but increasing cache size didn't help. My Internet connection speed is high.

What is wrong?

New update ?

I didn't try the last changes (my set is OSMC on RPI 3) but are they eligible for a new release ? It would be really nice to have subtitles support.

Error on screen when playing a Youtube playlist

I'm using addon 5.2.1 on OSMC. When I try to send a Youtube playlist link (via Yatse sharing) from my mobile phone to the media center the following happen:

Playlist videos start playing
An error message, saying "Playing error" appear on the screen and it is not possible to remove without stop the video.
On log I can see this line:
ERROR: Playlist Player: skipping unplayable item: 0, path [plugin://plugin.video.youtube/play/?playlist_id=RDLdRxXID_b28&order=default&play=1&video_id=LdRxXID_b28]

Since playlist starts normally how is it possible to remove this strange error message ?

Unpausing a video after a long pause cause play to freeze and then stop

You cannot pause a video for more that a couple of minutes, because otherwise when you unpause it, the video freezes and eventually you drop back to Kodi menu.

Steps to reproduce:

Play a long video.
Pause it for 10 minutes.
Unpause it.

Expected behaviour:

Video continues playing without any problems after pausing indefinitely. (Unless the video is no longer available or some catastrophic event has occured.)

Actual behaviour:

After unpausing, the video plays for a short time, then it freezes and a short while later you drop out into the menu you where in before you started playing the video.

This has been a problem since all the time I have been using Kodi on different versions of ubuntu. Right now my config is:

Lubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, with mainline kernel 4.8.6 (I am not using the vanilla kernel because lirc is broken for my device) at the moment.
Kodi 17.0-BETA5-Git:20161028
Youtube addon version 5.2.1

Unknown kind '' error

Hi,

I have a problem with your plugin on my Raspberry Pi 2 with OpenElec 6.0.3. It's a very mysterious error and I hope I describe it well.

The plugin was installed cleanly (no folder 'plugin.video.youtube' in addon_data). I log me in with the youtube.com/activate-thing. The plugin works very well.
Someday (I cannot reproduce when), I get an error-message, when I want to watch my subscriptions:

Exception in ContentProvider: Unknown kind ''

Here the log-entry:

If this error-message appear, I try it a few times again and suddenly it works... After this message, this exception doesn't appear again.

If I close the plugin and want to use it again, the same message appears again. Now, I have to try it a few times more (more then the first time) and it suddenly works...

If I retry this scenario again, it's now unpossible to skip this error message by try it again and again. If I restart the Rasperry Pi, I have the problem, which I described in Issue #42

After I deleted the addon_data-files, I can use the plugin again.

Add pairing support

Currently the add-on lack support (AFAIK) for pairing with youtube as the official apps for smart TVs do. So that's a "nice to have".

Enable support of Multichannel Audio

I'm using the last version of the addon on OpenELEC 6.0.3 (Kodi 15.2) and also on LibreELEC 7.0.2 (Kodi 16.1) on Raspberry Pi 2.
If I try to watch a YouTube video with Multichannel audio (for example Dolby Digital 5.1) the audio in output is always 2.0 channel (Stereo) with AAC Codec.
My setup is to use Audio Passthrough via HDMI (I have an AV Receiver), and I correctly can listen Multichannel audio such as Dolby Digital, DTS, etc... So the problem is not related to my configuration.

Please, is it possible to supports Multichannel audio (Dolby, DTS, etc..)?
May be is it related to add the DASH support in the addon?

Thanks.

Hi I was wondering if youtube is broken or not because every build I used says youtube error check your log info.

Feature request: add sound only option for playback

The main reason for this is android. It would be nice to put kodi to background / lock the screen and still have audio for things like podcasts or other talk heavy show (ie shoddycast)

Attempting to populate Titan widgets like "My Subscriptions" leads to error

Watch later playlist empty

Hi,

using your plugin on OSMC.tv (runs on Kodi) I get empty "Watch later" playlist. I tried to re-login, but it's still empty. Other playlists are ok though.

Regarding google API key issues

Hi
Great that someone has taken over maintanace of the YouTube addon.
I was looking at how the API keys are handled in the Youtube plugin.
Would it not be a better way to have a list of available API keys. So when a user starts the plugin for the first time it will lock a set of API keys. The selection of what API keys to use should be selected by random.
So if there is a quota issues then it should be an easy fix to add some more API keys to the list.
There is probably some user that already generated an own set of key and want to keep using them. So an option could be to override the random behaviour in the settings-file. So for example if "youtube.api.key", "youtube.api.id", "youtube.api.secret" are all empty then use the random API key selection behaviour. If not use the provided keys from the settings file.

Recent content type change reduces view options skin

Issue

In a recent commit ( 542cbfa ) the content type went from episodes to videos however in Aeon Nox at least this reduces the view options to only list / icons so you see no information only its label.

Workaround

Switched content type back to the original kodion.constants.content_type.EPISODES in code returns all the view types (low_list/ tri-panel etc..) but not sure if this is the right solution.

Play next Video automatically (like Youtube-Website)

[@Kodiforum:SteveJobs] Is there any way, when a video has ended, to play the next one automatically? (just like in the original YouTube website)

email address in addon.xml

I noticed that this is the new repo for the youtube plugin. But since bromix stopped maintaining this plugin, it might be a good idea to change the email in addon.xml to something else?
