Not working

[ElmorenohWTF]

I have a youtube playlist with more than 3000 songs, but if I try to open it in aimp using this plugin, it open the playlist but not the videos, it keeps like this:

My aimpyoutube config:

I tried enabling and disabling things but nothing worked

[SlimyRedstone]

I've got the same problem, still trying to solve it.

[swartex]

nothing works for me either

Surprised it took so long for this to pop up here. I have been experiencing the same issue since I updated to v1.7 from v1.5.
Been trying myself to get it to work. The extension also cannot find any playlist on my youtube and cannot play videos when I add them manually using a link. Thought it was an issue with my visuals C++ installs but the issue persists even after I reinstalled windows with a clean install of everything.

Anyone find a solution yet?

This is the result of YouTube and Google API restrictions, they reduce API calls quota and require a lot of paperwork to enable normal usage of the API client. I submitted everything they needed yesterday so hopefully they'll approve it soon and it'll start working again

[Duser919]

Thank you AdrianEddy! You are a legend for keeping this extension up for so long!

Is there anyway to use our own API key ?

[AdrianEddy]

Is there anyway to use our own API key ?

Yes, you can change the APP_KEY in Config.h and recompile.

You could also replace the key in the dll without recompiling, just use any hex editor (like HxD), open aimp_YouTube.dll, go to Search -> Replace:

• Search for: AIzaSyCeEdBFVx7MrZmbEewZCQrCGyJf02UNY8c
• Replace for: Your new api key, but make sure it has the same number of characters
• Datatype: Text-string
• Check [X] Unicode string
  and click Replace all

YouTube sent me a mail today that they are reviewing the API client, so hopefully it'll be fixed soon

@AdrianEddy any update on this?

[AdrianEddy]

Still waiting for reply from YouTube

Hm, even with my own API key, it doesn't seem to be working, am I doing something wrong ?

Or is youtube completely declining the client

@snuw

Got the same issue but there is a black spot there.
The new YouTube's API keys have length != of the default one that is packed into the DLL.
A better way is to build the plugin from scratch with your API key.

@AdrianEddy
Is there an update? Have they replied yet? I'm sorry don't know how long this process takes normally.

[AdrianEddy]

YouTube replied today saying the quota is restored, I tested and everything seems to work again, sorry it took this long

@AdrianEddy is a simple quota restoration enough ? Maybe a quota increasement would be more preferable.
Even that could you please resolve the current issue so everyone that is subscribed will get informed? Thanks

[Duser919]

It's definitely working now, thanks! I hope the quota restoration lasts though, at least until the API is approved.
@ElmorenohWTF resolve issue?

[ElmorenohWTF]

Is working for me too, thanks for your amazing work Adrian, I'll see how can I resolve the issue, I'm new on github

This has stopped working again, could you make short guide on how to compile it with the personal API key?

Assuming my pull request got in the day before the plugin was updated, you can supply your own personal API key without needing to recompile:

[AdrianEddy]

I recompiled from latest master, but I haven't checked it, I don't use AIMP anymore
Please check and let me know if it works
aimp_YouTube_v1.8.zip

[Wip-Sama]

I recompiled from the latest master, but I haven't checked it, I don't use AIMP anymore Please check and let me know if it works aimp_YouTube_v1.8.zip

It says that it does not have binaries for 64-bit, do I need to use AIMP 32-bit?

Assuming my pull request got in the day before the plugin was updated, you can supply your own personal API key without needing to recompile:

I downloaded the 1.7 from the AIMP website which is the latest release I could find, On Github the latest release is 2020 (1.7)
I did not find any newer releases anywhere.
(That button does not appear anywhere)
Also, I manager to change the client secret and client ID BUT the guide I followed did not say how to get the API key.

Edit: thanks to both of you for your work/time! and sorry for my terrible English...

Edit pt2 (this is embarrassing): Just found another way to add an APIKey/UserAppKey and not it works.
If there's a place where I can find updates on 64bit for the newer version of the plugin that would be great but thanks for the support!

[AdrianEddy]

Try this one for x64
aimp_YouTube_v1.8-x64.zip

[Wip-Sama]

it does works but you need to put all the 64x binaries in an x64 folder
so:
aimp_YouTube_v1.8-x64->x64>files

I did not try to do the same thing with the previous file you sent me toght.
