probably a corrupt xml? try to open onlinevideosites.xml in your browser, that gives you an error if there's anything wrong
And if that xml is correct then the onlinevideos.log might show what is wrong otherwise
The xml opens fine and all other sites still seem to be listed except YouTube. I had reverted my changes to onlinevideosites.xml last night and it was working this morning before the update. I don't think I changed anything else but I could be wrong. Log and onlinevideosites attached.

    huh that is weird. it says it can't find newtonsoft.json.dll. this should be in your mediaportal's programfiles folder.
    Can you verify that you have it there? and that its version is 13.0.3.something?

    that is weird. current mediaportal installs a newer version of it. what mediaportal are you on? and maybe some plugins you use overwrite it?
    Are you able to do do a fresh install somewhere to see where that old version is coming from?

    I manually updated the DLL and it seems to be working now. If this DLL is not updated by the addon then this is probably my fault for using MP 1.29, newer versions seem a bit slow and buggy in places. If it is part of MP and not the addon then yesterdays changes must have been too much for the old DLL to handle.

    that would explain a lot.
    I changed the code yesterday to use the official google api code (which aparrently depends on newtonsoft.json being newer) so I could fix the worldsnooker.
    Didn't notice myself there was a dependency like that because I tested it with current mediaportal.
    And not sure if other things might not work as intended, I generally keep an eye open for backwards compatibility but I can't guarantee that something slips through

    never a dull moment with you guys :)
    this is not really helpful: Mindestens ein Fehler ist aufgetreten.
    Not sure how to go forward with this. do other logfiles have some kind of error in it at around the same time?

    Changing the DLL for a new version doesn't seem to have broken anything else I use so I'll keep that until I try a new version of MP again.

    As for the new fixes I only have time for a quick test, results so far in most cases with and without MpUrlSourceSplitter enabled are:

    1. CPU eating yt-dlp solved here.

    2. Download works (Only tested this one with MpUrlSourceSplitter on).

    3. Some videos that wouldn't play in English are now fine but some still aren't in English like these:
    EOPLN-MVKY4
    _6Uj6o1fgA4
    B_Fi6g0p_Eo
    1l6r8JPZPeU

    One that has language fixed now:
    B_Fi6g0p_Eo

    Although partially fixed by the update, could the language thing be caused by my old MP too?
