Thumbs Up  [RELEASE] YouTube (Video) Plugin - De facto default standard YouTube Addon for XBMC Post: #1
This plugin is now the official YouTube plugin in the add-on repo.

The latest stable version of the plugin is 3.1.0.

To run the plugin it is recommended that you use the stable XBMC 11 Eden release and simply get it from the official add-ons repo.

Login:
We understand that some users might be hesitant to pass on their google account credentials to the plug-in (paranoia is healthy Smile), and for these users we suggest only providing YouTube specific account credentials (ie. only the YouTube username and password).

NOTES:
Users who are still experiencing login issues should follow these guidelines when posting about their problems:
Troubleshooting Login issues

Since several components of the plugin are now distributed as distinct services, manual installation has become so complex that we've decided to no longer provide old version of the plugin on our website. The source code for the plugin can now be found in our Mercurial repository: here

Code:
We've had some requests for the source of the plugin lately, the plugin is still licensed under GPL3 and the code can be found here:
http://hg.tobiasussing.dk/hgweb.cgi/youtubexbmc/

Issues and Problems:
Until now we've been using this thread to handle bug reporting, but it's gotten way to long, if you have persistent problems and you're unable to find answers on this forum, we suggest following this guide:

http://code.google.com/p/youtubexbmc/wik...llDebugLog

and posting an issue on our bug tracker here:

Know issues and Testing
Part of this plugin also includes an extensive automated test suite where we test aprox. 70% of all the plugins functions nightly, if something breaks we'll usually know it. Please check the test results from this site before posting a bug on our tracker:

This is VERY impressive. I highly suggest replacing nuka's youtube add-on with this master piece, beta or not. Kudos both of you. Nod

Just uploaded a new zip.

Fixed:
- After showing the settings window on the first run it didn't login.
- Improved error messages related to login.
- Added some more error handling.
