I have the Mut@nt HD51 openpli 7.3 latest version. I installed latest YouTube Extension from this location: http://taapat.ho.ua/...plugin-youtube/

 

I generate the three keys below via link https://console.developers.google.com/ and as described in the following link and followed the youtube video: https://forums.openp...ol#entry1177736

 

File exist in the /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key directory

API_KEY=<COPIED API KEY HERE>

YOUTUBE_API_CLIENT_ID=<COPIED Client ID HERE>

YOUTUBE_API_CLIENT_SECRET=<COPIED Client Secret HERE>

 

Restarted enigma2 box and started YouTube.

YouTube started -> Search -> Search videos -> Typed openpl and highlighted openpli by selecting it -> Click Ok and Ok again.

 

The following error occurs:

There was an error in creating entry list!

Maybe try other feeds…

 

It doesn’ t matter what I search for also when I search the youtube channels or playlists all give the same error message. Who can help me out, please let me know, thanks in advance.

 

Kind regards,

B-Real

What happens if you delete a file /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key, restart enigma, and try serach?

 

U.P.D.

Are you using the latest plugin version?
The latest version should be also available from the image feed.

Hello Taapat,

 

:-) All is working fine now. 

 

Ok, what I did to make it work:

- version that I installed manually from http://taapat.ho.ua/...plugin-youtube/ was version 558 installed with "opkg install <filename>.ipk"

- removed the latest version that I installed manually opkg remove <installed version>

- deleted file /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key

- Installed latest YouTube version from the feed like you advised (version 521)

- Restarted enigma

 

Did some more testing:

- Copied my YouTube.key back same error again. Deleted YouTube.key all is working again.

- Installed latest YouTube again (version 558) and no YouTube.key file, error again. 

 

So issues was that I installed latest version manually. When I installed the latest version from the feed all is working ok.

 

Still I have a question about the YouTube.key file. This should work because I'm now using your keys.

How should the YouTube.key file look like, I tried tried with no space, single quotes double quotes.

 

Kind regards,

B-Real

Hi,

 

In the YouTube.key file you can insert keys without quotes, with single quotes, with double quotes, with spaces before and after the keys.
All of these options should work.
 
Which editor do you use to edit the YouTube.key file?
I think that is your problem.
You need to use an editor that supports linux line endings.
For example Notepad does not support it.
 
U.P.D.
Try also to re-authorize after installing the latest version of the plugin or change the keys.
In the plugin settings disable login on startup, enable, and make authorization again.

Hi,

 

Ok I indeed used notepad (default editor from filezilla /grin) I now use Notepad ++.

 

Little lost here...

 

What I did

- removed the YouTube version 521 that I installed from the feed.

- Installed version 558: opkg install enigma2-plugin-extensions-youtube_h1+git558+93bd276-r0.0_all.ipk

- deleted file /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key (because this also worked with the 521 version)

error again.

 

What more did I do:

- Created the file YouTube.key with notepad++

- Uploaded /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key

- restarted enigma, error again.

 

Next:

- Remove /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key

Logged out YouTube 

- Reauthenticate YouTube

restarted enigma, error again (this should work cause I now have the same setup as with version 521).

 

- Logged out Youtube

- Created new keys with new google account

- Created the file YouTube.key with notepad++

- Uploaded /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key

- restarted enigma, error again.

 

- Logged in Youtube with new account

- restarted enigma, error again.

- Uploaded /etc/enigma2/YouTube.key

 

- restarted enigma, error again.

 

I now revert everything back to version 521 from the feed with no YouTube.key file.

This so my Little girls (age 7 and 4) can dance again to there favorite music :-)

Any tips are welcome.

Hi,

 

What do you mean by 'Logged out Youtube'?
You need to authenticate to youtube accept the new keys.
 
In the settings disable 'Login on startup'.
After that enable 'Login on startup' and follow all the steps to approve the plugin keys in the Google home page.
You will need to open a Google home page in a web browser, and enter the code from TV screen to authenticate the plugin.
Until you have done so, google accept plugin keys that have been authenticated before.
