MPEG DASH not working with latest Yuutube addon with LE 8.0.2 x86 install

1st Official Post

    Hi all,

    I have LE 8.0.2 installed on my Intel NUC. It works brilliantly and everything works well... apart from MPEG-DASH support in YouTube. When I choose the stream mpd/0 the stream does not play, and crashes (restarts) kodi.

    I have set Youtube to use MPEG-DASH, installed and enabled adaptive inputstream and rtmp addons. I have set Youtube to "Always ask for stream quality" but set max quality to 1080p. So whenever I choose a stream, it prompts me to choose. I choose the top stream (labelled MPD)

    LE version 8.0.2 x86

    Youtube addon version 5.4.1

    script.module.requests version is 2.12.4

    My log is:

    Thanks chewitt. I was just about to ask how I can get libwidevine installed. Lol.

    Any other ideas? Can anyone else get MPEG DASH working on x86 platform?

    Cheers

    inputstream.adaptive for Krypton is being updated up with backports from master in prep for the 17.4-RC1 release. The k17_2 branch in peak3d's github repo is (or will become) the production repo for it. Current git HEAD fixed a bunch of issues that I was seeing - we did some joint debug and test last night.

    Ah, OK thanks so much Chewitt! I'll await the 17.4-RC1 release, and recompile then.

    Thanks for your hard work mate. I'll test it again once I have updated to the RC1.

    Cheers,
