Hi,
I have problems with many youtube videos. Only "Error getting playback urls for video" is displayed. Logs attached (there tried to play "Viikate - Kuu kaakon yllä").

    Just published another update of the Youtube site. Let's hope it's now working again.

    Note: First time getting youtube video playback now will take very long. After that the cache kicks in.

    I only have this problem when I try to watch VEVO videos on youtube.
    I discovered it when I wanted to test some HD videos from the "HD content" menu item.
    Watch for videos with the red VEVO logo (for example Katy Perry - The one that got away), they will not play (on my system)

    I can select the bitrate, but then I get the message: Error starting video. connection is lost, cannot reopen.

    Well I explicitly tested vevo and those work here. Sure you have updated your site?
    And add logs... If you want help ;)

    My site is from 3-4-2015 18:12

    Usually I don't watch those VEVO videos so I don't really care about fixing it.
    I only noticed it when I searched quickly for a HD stream and ended up in this catagory and took the first video available.
    It happened to be a VEVO video.

    Anyway, here are some logs

    Seems your site updating inside OV is not running:
    The dll is not the one from the global server:
    OnlineVideos.Sites.offbyone (Version: 1.0.0.3592, Compiled: 2015-03-26 18:39:39)
    The error reads:
    Error on getting sites overview from server: System.Net.WebException: The remote name could not be resolved: 'onlinevideos.nocrosshair.de'

    So you most likely have a firewall enabled that blocks something.

    After many hours of troubleshooting I've given up and accepted that it's just "one of these things" when using madVR for watching live TV. I've now ticked the box to "Use EVR for LiveTV", with a default display refresh rate of 50Hz. In combination with tweaking some of the Nvidia 3D settings for the MP executable only, I now have a...

    Thank you for this tip! I'm moving MP TV Server to a new machine. I installed the 64-bit version and most of the MP firewall rules were set to Public. I couldn't connect to the new TV Server from my old single-seat installation running 32-bit until I changed all MP-related firewall rules on the new machine to Private. Before I did...

    Apologies Pablik. My bad. I neglected to run WMI Manager and check Properties as you advised. Sure enough, it produced this error: I tried to run winmgmt /resetrepository, but there were conflicts with running services. So I stopped those services (Malwarebytes & IP Helper), then stopped the winmgmt service. I was then able to run...
