4 years ago Upgrading the Kodi YouTube plug-in seems to have resolved it. I suppose the API developer key constraint no longer applies either.

A few days ago I was able to cast videos from YouTube to Kodi. Today I cannot. The add-on triggers the now-defunct YouTube plug-in on Kodi. This plug-in is defunct is because it requires users to acquire a developer API key but Google plugged this loophole at least a year ago because it violates the EULA.
It looks like the FireFox add-on was updated on the 2nd (three days ago), so I would surmise the version I had before that was working properly. I had assumed it was using some other medium to cast the video from YouTube to Kodi other than the YouTube plug-in because I know my YouTube Kodi plug-in hasn't worked for at least a year. But as I said, I was able to use this Firefox add-on to cast YouTube videos just a few days ago.
