Hello,
unfortunately, I do not understand you issue completely. Maybe the reason is that you summarize multiple problems in one github issue? If yes try to split individual and independent problems in to multiple issues.
It seems you have an Issue with Youtube Live Streams
https://www.youtube.com/c/CNBC/live
is not working for you, please provide a log where you restart kodi and send this link to it using kore, sendtokodi ios app/plugin, etc. It seems like you have an Issue with with live tv
It seems like not all websites listed by yt-dlp are working for you
It seems like you want to hide the sendtokodi notifications
Also it seems like you installed the addon by cloning this repo? Please install the addon via the official repo!
I was basically saying that I want to use SendToKodi because the Kodi YouTube plugin cannot handle the /live format but SendToKodi does. However SendToKodi seems to give errors with many streams, live or VoD, on my Nexus build. So I wonder if SendToKodi is updated for Nexus ?
Anyway, does SendToKodi work with Nexus? Can you kindly provide me with the correct link so I can test again ? This is where I installed the SendToKodi zip.
SendToKodi works on Nexus. We had an issue with the repo and nexus (which will then not update) but that is solved. Install it by installing the repo and then within Kodi select the repo and install sendtokodi from there. The repo link is in the readme https://github.com/firsttris/repository.sendtokodi.python3/raw/master/repository.sendtokodi.python3/repository.sendtokodi.python3-1.0.0.zip
If there are some links working and others not that is indeed an issue with the addon and should not be a nexus issue. Please provide a live link which does not work and I try to have a look at it.
Ok thanks, will try and inform you of issues ! 🙂
For example, plugin.video.youtube streams most channels fine. So does this mean other YouTube channels also should stream correctly, or there might be selective obfuscation still for some YouTube channels?
How about for SendToKodi?
As mentioned please provide a live stream url which does not work for you and I can check the reason.
Closing due to inactivity to the requested details.
Hi 😊
Good to see updates...great job.
I recall using SendToKodi couple years ago , after conversing with you, so need to jog my memory.
I am using AlexElec.tv Nexus PCx86 builds forked from Coreelec.
Below points are edited from yesterday as I setup your addon and ran the playlists as below.
Here is my Kodi log: https://paste.kodi.tv/tehobobosu.kodi
The following URL structure also works in a m3u playlist, besides the usual video _id= $videoid one:
plugin://plugin.video.sendtokodi?https://www.youtube.com/c/CNBC/live
TVlink works nicely with live YouTube and other live streams, being based on Streamlink for live streams. But cannot handle YouTube VOD.
Result is that 5-6 live YouTube channels played via SendToKodi , and another 5-6 did not, as the log says. The last YouTube live channel froze the screen and I decided to quit, so I could send you a log.
Looks like Nexus Py 3.11+ issues. I kept SendToKodi settings as default ( so the experimental manifest was enabled.)
But YouTube VOD channels work fine with plugin.video.youtube addon in a separate playlist in IPTV Merge along with Plex and Pluto channels.
The plugin.video.youtube addon problem is that it cannot handle live channels format as in point 1 above. Only streams video_id= $videoid standard format channels; but these $videoid channels change URLs frequently compared with the /live ones.
I see a long list of websites supported by yt-dlp and yt-dlp GitHub saying it has merged with yt-dl and another package. So is support for streaming these websites already included in SendToKodi or do I need more?
Is there a way to hide the (i) SendToKodi notification appearing in top right of screen?
Cheers 😹, Shippy.
