anxdpanic/plugin.video.youtube v7.4.0 on GitHub

Important

Complete all steps of the Setup Wizard to apply appropriate plugin settings and minimise avoidable operational issues.

Important

To allow for successful playback, it may be required that you sign in again from within the addon.

If you have previously signed in but the Sign In option is still being displayed then you are not signed in fully and will need to do so again.

The sign in process will prompt you to login to your Google/YouTube account and allow account access for as many as 3 separate applications.

Note

The Kodi v18 releases are offered as-is, and no support will be provided for them, except at the discretion of the maintainers
