VEVO videos not streaming on YT XMBC App - emjayuu - 2013-06-25
How do we get this discourse to the attention of the developers?
It has already been thrown out once when a ticket was raised recently but maybe the issue was that it is not a bug which needs to be corrected, but rather a request for new coding to reflect what is the current reality - for example emulating the protocols of the vevo / bluecop app that Navigates refers to in his post below.
Is there a different channel for requesting developments / specification changes rather than the usual one for bug fixes?
RE: [RELEASE] YouTube (Video) Plugin - bering - 2013-06-29
I just found out, totally by accident mind you, that the plugin does work!
When I click on "Play Now" in the "Play to XBMC" chome plugin, the "opening stream" window pops up on XBMC... and stays there, with no progress whatsoever, for EIGHT MINUTES... The screen saver even kicks in. But the video eventually start playing.
I tried a few different videos, from a 27min 1080p video, down to a 28 seconds, 360p video. They all take about 8 min to show up on screen.
Hope that helps debugging?
Geo-blocked - Gull - 2013-06-29
is there any solution and method in this addon for watching youtube videos in countries where it is Geo-blocked, thanks.
RE: [RELEASE] YouTube (Video) Plugin - NewMedia - 2013-07-01
I can't seem to find this scenario or issue stated anywhere (excuse me if it is) but sometimes when XBMC is idle or not being used, I randomly get a Youtube video being played, usually a trailer, sometimes not. I assume it's this, because my remote shows a url for Youtube plugin. I don't know if it's the settings or related to another add - on or something else. Any ideas? (Apologies if the problem is remotely obvious - I'm new
N: Sometimes I also get a cache video randomly playing (when XBMC is idle,) opening curtains and then it stops. I don't know if that's related to cinema experience (I've just added).

Youtube doesn't work in external player - maronn - 2013-07-01
Hi
I have problem with Youtube videos not working in external player on Windows, my netbook is to slow to play in XBMC native player but it plays just fine in external players like WMP or GOM, however when I try to play Youtube video I get an error access denied, why is that? Even if I copy&paste YT video URL from xbmc.log (no errors in log) to IE it shows HTTP Error 403 Access Denied, why is that? Video plays in internal XBMC player but is too slow to be watchable, please help THANKS.

Yeah I know, I tried to delete that post because I found this topic, but I got permission denied.

Yes I tried that and got same result - OK in internal player, error 403 acces denied in external player/ IE.
It looks like that video URL somehow expires before it's handled by an external player
[RELEASE] YouTube (Video) Plugin - De facto default standard YouTube Addon for XBMC - X-dark - 2013-07-02
Since a few days, when I try to play a video from my watch later or my subscription, I get a keypad appearing besides the loading screen. After clicking OK a few times, I get an url cannot be loaded error.
I thought it might be a Google Authenticator prompt but when entering correct code it does not work better.
I have tried erasing my login info and re-entering them. Upon first play I got the keypad, entered a Google Authenticator code and the video played. After exiting the plugin and getting back in, I am back with the same problem.
Is this something known or resulting from recent change?

Autoplay - skylarblu - 2013-07-04
I like the addon but autoplay isn't working, when a video finishes it just goes back to the page with video thumbnails. Also when a video is playing and I click the play next video button a small box pops up that states "Can't find a next item to play".
Also the "New Subscription Videos" section is limited to 24 videos, you can't load more videos like you can in the other sections, please fix this.
With autoplay working this would be an awesome addon!
Edit: Seems that the "Play from here" option works with autoplay, great.
Still would like "New Subscription Videos" to show more than 24 videos though.

its due to html 5.. i ran a packet trace on some failing videso, and the difference is html5.
working videos are those delivered through one large video file.

that may be the case at times.. but for the most part it is due to html5 being the default delievery method for that specific video.
this can be proven with a packet trace.

Thanks morelife for confirming that. I tried opting out of the testing but it didn't fix the problem. Perhaps it was too late to opt out. Any ideas on how it can be fixed?
