Suddenly my Youtube Addon refused to play any videos. I have custom APIs, i can see my account and even the newest videos in my subscriptions.. but as soon i try to start watching something i only get the "youtube error - view logfile for more information" popup. I am far from being a coder so this wont help me a lot, i hope you guys can help me with this.
I am on a Raspberry Pi 4, Libreelec 9.2.0 and Kodi 18.5. As far as i know no major changes happened since the addon worked fine aside from the Amazon VOD addon being installed. Deactivating it wont help though.
Heres the log i found:
