1 year ago this message has been printed incorrectly because was missing code to detect vp9 codec i have fixed it but unfurnately seem there are other problems for audio there is no audio (0 channels on audio track has no influence on this already tested)
@glennguy i don't know if it is worth wasting time investigating since everything works fine on Kodi 21 suspect there is a possibility its due to ffmpeg bugs but if you want to have a look (not now, after finishing the rework you are doing) i keep issue opened

Bug report
Describe the bug
Here is a clear and concise description of what the problem is:
Playing Youtube videos with the SendToKodi addon almost never succeeds when the addon's "Adaptive Streaming" feature is turned on.
Expected Behavior
Here is a clear and concise description of what was expected to happen:
Youtube videos play.
Actual Behavior
A Kodi spinner is shown briefly, then playback stops and you're back on the Kodi interface. No error popup is shown, but there's a message in the log that provides a clue:
Possible Fix
Unknown.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
The manifest URL seems to have a limited lifetime, but if it can be inserted directly into Kodi, this will make it easier to reproduce the problem. See the log output below for an example.
Debuglog
The debuglog can be found here:
MPD/M3U8s/ISM
An example or copy of a manifest (or manifests for HLS - master and variants) can be found here:

Additional context or screenshots (if appropriate)
Here is some additional context or explanation that might help:
The plugin used to work fine when it constructed the manifests on the fly. Youtube recently made some changes that will deliver a manifest directly, and that will get picked up by the inputstream.adaptive addon instead, which will then fail to process it.
I originally reported the issue on the SendToKodi tracker, but was pointed here because it seems to be a problem in inputstream.adaptive: https://github.com/firsttris/plugin.video.sendtokodi/issues/93
