YouTube Plugin not working
#1
Hi - my Xbmc live 10 has suddenly developed an issue with the Youtube plugin - it's able to show the list of videos (even after search) - But, pretty much all videos are failing to play. One/two videos are sometimes playing. I have not made any change to my xbmc recently and it started suddenly. All other things are working fine so far. Any idea?
Thanks,

Just checked and is working for me. Im not an expert at fixing these, but I believe you stand a better chance of getting help on here from other more advanced users if you post your logs to pastebin.com. Good luck.

Same for me here. It just stopped working. I have not used it for a long time. I run this on Xubuntu 11.04. Will post log files when I have enough time

Same here. I launch the add on and navigate around. Just can't play any videos. When I select one nothing happens.

Just checked in Eden - the YouTube Addon v2.8 is also failing.
Thanks

I had problems with the previous version of the youtube plugin. The upgrade to 2.8 seemed to fix all those, until now. Could it be youtube?

It has always surprised me that the plugin skips the ads. Although I appreciate it, I'm sure youtube doesn't. Is it kinda like biting the hand that feeds you?
#9
Also the same for me, it was working before, but not used it for a bit and now BOOM no youtube Sad
#10
Sad 
Hi im on eden YouTube addon not working on playback
#11
Exact same issue here. Most videos fail to play, only some work. Noticed this problem a few days ago (over the weekend).
XBMC 10 on Linux Mint 11.
#12
Not working for about a week now. Pity, my kids love playing music video through YT (me too btw Wink
#13
Same here and i'm on xbmc-11.0-Eden_beta2 but mine worked last night. I've tried to default all settings but that didn't change anything. Still not working. Addon version: 2.8.0.
