Thank you for the link. Although that link was the old api (i realized after overviewing the code for about 10min). But i found the apiv3 version.
The problem with videos sorted by viewcount/relevance seems to come from when mediaportal calls "QueryCategoryVideos" at line 685. This call order results by relevance (only 2 places do order by relevance. this call and the "QuerySearchVideos" call).
It could also be very nice, if you could add "New Videos" like in the old api. The activities.list can function the same as the subs feed from apiv2.

I guess you do not have the required filter installed.
Your logs are missing a file like "MPUrlSourceSplitter.log" and the log says:
[05-09 22:05:28,893] [MPMain ] [WARN ] Error adding 'MediaPortal Url Source Splitter' filter to graph: Exception from HRESULT: 0xFFFFFFFB

Make sure you have this extensions installed:
https://www.team-mediaportal.com/ex...diaportal-iptv-filter-and-url-source-splitter
and it is registered after install. (Check with "graphstudio next" for example) If not do so manually.

Thanks. I installed it twice once via mpem and once via .mpei. i manually registered the .ax file as well. I'll try again.

It is strange that it was working then after an auto update via mpem it has stopped working.

After rechecking, i have the latest version and it's been manually registered.

The authorization Cookie is saved in mediaportal.xml. I am not asked on every mp start. How are you closing mp? I think the file is saved on mp closing, so if you kill the task you might get the described behavior.

Closing it either via the the UI itself or from the tray if I have it minimized (right click -> close), will check my Mediaportal.xml to see if it's saved

I too have problems playing certain videos resulting in the dreaded "no URL" error. I have .net 4.5, SAF6.30 and the latest URLSplitter installed, but this one still doesn't work:

In the MPUrlSourceSplitter.log, there is absolutely nothing for this time period, but lots of info on videos I played before or after.

If you need any other logs, just drop me a line. I'm a little hesitant to post boatloads of potentially private information, so I haven't just attached a complete log archive.

Cheers, michael.

@Hes
that youtubevideo says "Playback on other websites has been disable by the video owner". So that's why you can't see it on OV

 

[greybox]

With the latest update the playback works now, but search results return the titles and upload time instead of duration. How can I show the duration?

 

[offbyone]

Unfortunately Google currently does not give the duration of a video on every API call. Not sure why they did this. Some video lists will have a duration on their elements, depending on the query - some won't.

 

[offbyone]

I have updated the youtube site. Under "My subscriptions" you'll now find a "Latest Videos" category as first entry, doing the action list with home as requested.
I also fixed that the sort order is now possible on search. Proble, in general: Youtube API v3 does not offer a sort order on most queries. Mostly only search for videos.

 

[Rick164]

Google does have a habit of breaking their APIs more often then any tech company out there

There does seem to be the date attribute in every video which is consistent but by default AM/PM (depending on user settings) so would need to be converted to a universal sort time ( Datetime.ToString("u") ) to allow for proper sorting, might it be possible to use the video date and sort them in the UI (facadeList.sort(<videoDateAttr>)?

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos#snippet.publishedAt

Far from ideal but might be useful as a temporary workaround

 

[offbyone]

The problem with that idea is pages requests. If the server already pre-sorts the videos, what good would be the second request which gives me videos seemingly randomly sorted inbetween the old ones
