Invidious Addon for Kodi

Invidious Addon for Kodi.
Download the latest version from here (script.module.iapc is available here and script.module.yt-dlp is available here).
Alternatively you can install this repository and install Invidious from Kodi.
If a video fails to play, you have the option to play it directly from YouTube (in context menu).
@greenfoo, @Dreamdance61: would you guys be so kind as to update your respective translations? I'd love to release a fully translated 0.2.5 and there are 2 or 3 (I think) new strings to deal with.
Also, if you feel they deserve a translation, the description/summary tags in addon.xml could use your help 😃
thanks in advance for your help
@DavidHenryThoreau, @greenfoo: I'd like to make a new minor release with a couple of new features (feed/search history). There are a few new/modified strings needing translation. Would you guys be so kind as to update your respective contributions?
thanks in advance for your support
HI there @lekma
Thanks A LOT for this plugin, this is has been really fantastic for me in the last months :)
However, I seem to be stuck on version 0.5.7. Of course I could install current release (v1.0.0) manually, but I would like to report that, even if I have forced an update on the repository (which is now at 3.0.0), the 1.0.0 version of the plugin doesn't yet show on the plugin update menu on Kodi.
Any idea on what could be going on? Maybe v1.0.0 hastn't been pushed to the repository yet?
Thanks!
I tried my own instance (0.20.1-97eb01a @ master) and the top 8 instances from the plugin's Readme but only invidio.us plays videos. The other instances just flash and have logs like that:

commit https://github.com/lekma/plugin.video.invidious
LibreElec/Raspi 9.2.1
It would be nice to disable search history on settings.
It would be nice to add right click in order to add channel to favorites.
As mentioned in the title, invidious has stopped returning search results since last week, maybe a bit more. Searching for a video, a channel or a playlist makes kodi's loading circle spin until I stop it with backspace. When it is stopped, these are written in the log

I found your addon some weeks ago after I dumped the official one for youtube due to api key issues and I ONLY use its search function, so I did not test anything else.
Getting

on Kodi 18.2 Leia.
At this point I can't update to newer versions of Kodi due to all the breakage Python 3 brings for existing plugins.
I was reading reddit earlier and I came accross this, so I thought I should mention it here since the addon will probably stop working after that date

It seems that the site will be shut down on September 1st. The api will be shut down on October 1st, so I changed the title.

When using my own hosted invidious instance for some reason requests made by the Invidious plugin are adding port 3000 to the requested video url even though I am not specifying it in the setup.
You can see in this log that the service url is correct, but when it tries to connect to the video it adds :3000 to the url.
This does not appear to occur if using one of the hosts from the public instance selector, only if I specify my invidious instance manually.

Hi all,
after a few days of working fine, yesterday the addon stopped working. Anyone knows how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

Please make it possible to order search by date (newest) in addition to whatever it is ordered by default (relevance?). This should be a per-search setting, because I would like to have searches saved for some topics by date, and for other topics ordered by something else.
Invidious official domain has moved. I strongly suggest changing the URL for the official Invidious instance from https://invidio.us to https://invidious.io because https://invidio.us is now deprecated as per the project's recent announcement.
"invidio.us is now deprecated, invidious.io is the new domain.
The invidious-redirect website ( invidio.us ) is now https://redirect.invidious.io/
The instance API ( instances.invidio.us ) is now https://api.invidious.io/
The uptimerobot page ( uptime.invidio.us ) is now https://uptime.invidious.io/
https://git.invidious.io/ redirects to the Github page of the project: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/
https://docs.invidious.io/ redirects to the documentation website of the project: https://github.com/iv-org/documentation/
https://invidious.io/ will become in the future a "project presentation" page (like https://searx.me/ ), we will use a markdown framework like Hugo."
beforehand: i wrongly posted this issue already at a different project (TheAssassin/kodi-invidious-plugin#18)... sorry for somehow assuming - just because of the same addon id - that these two projects are closer related.
i'm using the latest OSMC (2022.03-1) which provides Kodi 19.4 and is based on Debian 10 Buster. the addon plugin.video.invidious from the official repo (0.1.0+matrix.1) can be installed, but if i try to send any request to the chosen invidious instance - no mater which one - i get a 403 response.
because it seems a little bit outdated, i activated/installed @lekma's addon repo, installed it's latest version (1.0.10), but then i just get an error notification to look at the logs for further information... the lines invidious related:

it seems that this addon - at least all version in @lekma's addon repo - uses/assumes python 3.8 but Debian Buster provides only python 3.7 (3.7.3-1 in my case to be precise).
if i'm correct, is there any chance to get this addon working with python <3.8 (with reasonable effort)? or is there a way to install the needed dependencies resp. check them beforehand and avoid installing/updating if they are not met?
For some time now, every time I call the feed, I get the above error message in the right upper corner. It still works, but it takes a long time until something happens.
I am using Kodi 19.3 on a Raspberry Pi with LibreELEC 10.0.1 and addon in version 1.0.8.
Please add a setting to load any video, youtube playlist, channel page from youtube.com instead from the invidious instance site without the need for the YouTube addon
Kodi 19 was released yesterday and it demands all addons to be made with python3 (kodi 18 supported both python3 and python2).
So, I upgraded to 19 a few minutes ago and now I am checking which of my addons are broken because of this. Invidious is one of them, so here is the issue report, plain and simple.
There is no log to show and the addon is not even listed as available from your repo because of the above.
Hello,
I would like to have a path that I can use in the search settings of my Kodi skin to directly access the videos.
Thank you for your work !
The search can't return videos :

Using search it would be nice to have a stack of the latest N searches to quickly get back to an old query.
Can you please add an extra entry in the main menu, under search, that leads to the settings of the addon?
The main reason behind this is simple: it makes it easier switch between the instances. The way it is now, I have to exit invidious, right click on it in the list of the video addons and select settings (or press i to get to the addon's info page, then settings).
The addon has not returned a single search result for me in the last 3+ days, regardless of what instance I select in there, so I assume it is an api issue and the addon is not to blame. I have the same behavior on straw-viewer as well.
Please make it possible to view all search results in one common playlist.
Use case:
I would like to see the new videos of all my saved searches, without having to open each saved search individually to see whether there is a new video.
Rather than subscribing to channels, I would like to subscribe to topics (= saved searches).
They should be in descending release date order (=newest first).
If i'm using the right click play on YouTube after watched the video is not mark as read.
I like the fact that you can set up a feed here without logging into any web service. This is better for privacy.
Is there an easy way to get existing YouTube subscrptions into this plugin's feed, similar to what NewPipe is doing?
https://newpipe.net/FAQ/tutorials/import-export-data/#import-youtube
This may be asking a lot. I was wondering if support for SponsorBlock is a feasible thing to include, either in this repository or as a separate companion add-on. I use the mpv_sponsorblock_minimal script with mpv and always miss this feature when using Invidious on Kodi. Especially on videos with a lower signal-to-noise ratio (videos with many sponsorships and unneeded fluff).
There is a SponsorBlock add-on for YouTube, but I would rather not use the YouTube add-on for the sake of privacy (it requires unique API keys associated to a particular identity).
Maybe it would be better to write a more generic add-on that can perform this functionality with any media file/stream, but sadly I currently lack the know-how to do it myself...
Hello,
thank you very much for your addon. I love it.
When playing videos I sometimes have the problem that only the sound is played but not the picture. For some channels the error rate is very high. It doesn't matter if the addon is used in version 1.0.10 or 1.0.13 or which OS is used (tried Android and Linux). Also the Kodi version does not matter (19.3, 19.4 and 19.5 tried). Likewise, the public server instance is irrelevant. Also reinstalling the addon or even Kodi doesn't do anything. In the browser via the various Invidious instances, all videos are played without any problems.
Example:
Channel "Visualpolitik DE"
Of the most recent three videos (as of 01/01/2023 08:00 CET), two do not work.
Problems:
https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=cFIuiTECevA
https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=UvvY9ZeU0So
No problems:
https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=xlSvbdt96jI
As I said, only in the addon, no problem in the browser.
Can you reproduce the problem and maybe even solve it?
Do others also have this problem?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Kind regards
Björn
Add an option to change the video quality
Would it be possible to have something like this?
Example: I subscribe to channels A, B and C. This new folder (maybe called "Subscriptions RSS"?) would then contain something like this (in this order):
This would allow us to have the "home page" functionality of a YouTube account without actually needing one.
Thanks.
I don't see an option anywhere to log in. I've exported my YouTube subscriptions and imported them into an Invidious instance, and /api/v1/auth/feed on that instance returns the newest videos. I could add subscriptions manually to the plugin's feed list,or convert with something like this and dump the file into the plugin's data directory:
from xml.etree import ElementTree
from pprint import pprint
from collections import OrderedDict
import pickle
def extract_rss_urls_from_opml(filename):
urls = OrderedDict()
with open(filename, 'rt') as f:
tree = ElementTree.parse(f)
for node in tree.findall('.//outline'):
url = node.attrib.get('xmlUrl')
name=node.attrib.get("title")
id=str(url)[52:]
if (id!=""):
urls[str(url)[52:]]=name
return urls
channels = extract_rss_urls_from_opml("youtube.opml")
f=open("feed.pickle","wb")
pickle.dump(channels,f,protocol=2)
f.close()
but it takes several minutes to load the 70+ subscriptions I have that way, and I suspect it'd take several minutes every time. It also has to be repeated across every Kodi installation I have. Since Invidious supports logins and subscriptions, it seems it'd be better if this plugin supported them, as assembling the feed list on the Invidious server is likely going to be faster.

Hi,
I just tried out the plugin and I like it a lot (running kodi on a pretty weak machine and it works great, but freetube is a bit too demanding for it)
i gave the plugin a shot and it works great -- i just wonder if there is a file somewhere (f.e. xml?) where it stores the feeds ... i would write a small script to convert my freetube "subscriptions" to the plugin, so I can easily switch
thx
There is also another addon with the same goal https://github.com/TheAssassin/kodi-invidious-plugin
Maybe you both can connect and develop 1 addon with all the features instead of two? ;)
Hi there,
I am running KODI on the Raspberry Pi4, and I have manually installed the Invidious plugin.
However, everytime I try to do a SEARCH, or access the MUSIC section, etc... I get "Invidious error: check log"

Any help, please?
As mentioned in the title, updating script.module.iapc to v0.2.0 made invidious unusable.
When kodi starts, a notification pops up that invidious has crashed and the log mentions

Downgrading script.module.iapc broke to v0.1.0 makes the first error go away, but search remains broken.
Kodi 18.9 on libreelec x64 9.2.6 (as seen in the logs above) and on debian testing x64, invidious 0.2.6-c1d590 and kavin.rocks as the instance.
Truth is I had not opened invidious since last week, so the search may have been broken already all that time.
Thank you in advance and have a happy new year :)
Hi, what can I do?
In matrix v 1.0.8 it works with changed ip address, but 0.0.6 for leia fail.
Can you help me?
Thanks!
Bizarre question, I know, but I'm using DSPlayer and wondered if there were any version that worked with 17.6?
Add a repository for plugin.video.invidious in order to be up to date.
Hi,
I'm using the kodi invidous application thanks for shared :)
Can you add a right click option in videos in order to go to channel directly ?
1/ In the description the date is not the same on YouTube website than in Invidous.
For example :
2/ The hour can vary depends on the searched hour for the test it was 10:44

I suggest to add an option wich can be disabled to automatically pick a random invidious instance (to avoid 500 error)
straw-viewer is using this option :
https://github.com/trizen/straw-viewer/blob/master/README.md#invidious-instances
Add option to play on YouTube instead of playing with invidious server (right click play on youtube directly by clicking ok)
When i'm stopping playing video I get search windows pop up.
It make me think about this issue :
