Hey everyone,
I've just published the YouTube plug-in for Encore Music, here on XDA Labs. If you don't know what XDA Labs is, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866
This plug-in allows you to listen, download and add to playlists YouTube videos in Encore Music.
This plug-in requires the base app, Encore Music, to work.
- Listen to your favorite songs for free on YouTube, without advertisement, no subscription required
- Search through the full YouTube library from the Encore Music search
- Browse uploaders and channels like artist and albums
- Save bandwidth by loading your YouTube playlists offline. Save storage space also as only the audio track will be stored!
- Change your YouTube playlists directly from the app
THIS PLUGIN IS STILL IN BETA but I'll be on the watch out for any bug or issue you might encounter. I don't want the Google Play Music story happen again Make sure to reach me either here on this topic, or in PM, or by e-mail at apps at xplod dot fr.

Unfortunately this plug-in can't be added to the Play Store (for the obvious "Google will kick it in mere minutes" reason), which means we can't take advantage of the Play Store features.
Would there be any payment method other than PayPal that'd work for you?

I am chinese user I guess what I can do is use alipay(you even may not hear about that...).
beside that, i would like suggest add a zombie app in appstore and with payment, and update through xdalab, or i pm you play gift card.

translated， hope can add language support

Looks promising! But it seems like I am to stupid to find the download button.
EDIT: The playlist I created was for some reason a mixed, not a YouTube only playlist. Downloading a playlist created with YouTube directly works.

Is there a way to import a playlist already on my YouTube account? I can't seem to find that option.

:crying:

How can i get this app?

thank you !!!!

Hello! This is a great plugin but I have a problem: whenever I enter a search query and I am on cellular data connection it just keeps searching, offering no results. Is anybody experiencing the same?

i wish it has been free,would like to try it out.(I am not using any credit cards personally that's why ) Btw i checked the spotify plugin,in spotify i login using my facebook account and do not worry about the user name and pass.is there any way to login to spotify reading from system settings or any button to login to spotify using facebook or google acc?i mean for faster login option.Also I would like to contribute for translation to Turkish if you can send me the text fields to be translated.I don't understand the github database thing.

Great app
But still some Playback error's happen.
Btw, will this app get updated or does the devolopment stopped?

Maaaan why £2.00? I don't wanna pay for the privilege of having a YouTube plugin for a music player.

It doesn't work for me (see screenshot)... After clicking play button I can see the play button circling (around the pause icon) but never started playing.. Am i missing to configure anything in particular..

Is this plugin dead now? Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while.

It keeps spinning.

Download???
From where can I download it?

YouTube ads play on the official YouTube app, despite YouTube AdAway

Hey there, whenever I watch any video on the youtube app, I always see some mod edit ads, at a point of time, I saw so many mod edit ads, and was way too pissed off, so I decided to block them once and for all!
I tried this, and it worked for some time.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-t2547316
Now, as usual, I am using a rooted phone and flashed xposed, installed youtube AdAway, and.....................................
Whenever I play a video on the official YouTube app.............
NOTHING'S mod edit HAPPENING, THOSE IRRELEVANT mod edit ADS PLAY (WHETHER THE VIDEOS ON THE OFFICIAL YOUTUBE APP PLAYS PROPERLY OR NOT) DESPITE THE YOUTUBE ADAWAY APP INSTALLED (WHICH CLAIMS TO BLOCK ADS)
PLEASE HELP.
Thanks
and sorry for the bad language, cos I'm a lot frustrated.

Every time you update the YouTube app ,you also have to reinstall YTadaway.

Actually, I noticed the same thing a few days ago, but I never updated YouTube or changed any of my settings for my rooted device. Not sure why the ads started appearing on their own without any software updates.

Sometimes certain modifications for applications only work for a specific update. Check if you have the same update version that supports Ad away.

I did it, I did as described on how to block YouTube ads, but still those horrible ads creep up, ads play whether the video plays or not.

Nowadays YouTube ads are annoying AF, I don't know why the YouTube Adaway app isn't blocking any ads

Youtube app

Figured this has been discussed many times, but could not find the details?
Was wondering if there was a way to get a youtube app installed on Webos that will play videos without ads? I know it may need to be rooted, so if thats needed thats ok. It seems like there is a way root now with 3.5 or lower.
I know with Android this is easy with or without root. So would like to do the same with LG SmartTV running WebOS.

you can probably add the urls for the ads to the hosts file which should stop them from loading

Can I do that not rooted?

URL blocking hasn't worked for well over a year with YouTube. PiHole and the like are ineffective.
You need a modified app that doesn't play ads, like you get for Android. I don't think one exists for LG WebOS.

Run youtube without ads on LG-TV
Have the Youtube app installed on the LG-TV (Useing this app direcly will always show adds on all youtube videos), if you have an android phone -Then google "YouTube Vanced" -its a modded adfree Android YouTube client, works on none rooted android phones. Run the app on your phone search for the Video then use icon to cast screen to the TV. Youtube app on TV will show the video without ads.
I guess you can do the same if you have iPhone and an youtube adfree app.

any update on this subject? unfortunately casting from Vanced is not a solution anymore, TV keeps showing ads which can be skipped after 5s of viewing. What is interesting - Vanced even displays a notification that TV is going to show the ad in a few secs

I just went to https://rootmy.tv from my LG TV web browser and it installed the homebrew channel, from that I was able to install the adfree youtube mod and disable my TV checking for new updates which might lose my root. It also includes SponsorBlock in the mod so it will skip annoying subscription reminders & in-video promotions.

Can you revert back if needed?
I have a 2019 model

Adblock in Web + Youtube possible with HD 10?

Hello,
I'm evaluating if a HD 10 could be my first tablet ever. I would mainly need it for research and youtube videos. Also my kids should use it.
My main concern is: could I get a web adblocker working on the HD? Is eg Adblock possible in the fire browser? Can I install "youtube vanced" for having a youtube version without ads (or anything else)?
Could I install apps limiting the usage for my kids, without having to license any monthly-subscription apps for it?
Thanks a lot

It's possible!

Yes, you can. I recommend DNS66 because it works without root and is not very battery intensive. You can download it from F-Droid, an alternate app store. Here's a good article about it.

Yeah, just sideload a Youtube Vanced and MicroG APK. That's it. You can find rootless versions here. Note: These versions cannot save watched videos, watch progress or search history (for me).

Yes, your tablets ships with Amazon Freetime. You have to create a kids profile then you can restrict how long and what apps your kids use, check their activities and get a restricted kids web browser as well.
My six-year-old Cousin has a Fire HD 8 Kids Edition setup with Freetime and it seems to work.

Adblocking Facebook app

I'm running evolution X ROM and rooted with adaway installed so all ads in all apps are blocked, but for some reason Facebook still has ads when watching videos? Anyone know a way I can block these too? I've been through the Facebook app ads settings and disabled/removed all permissions too.

I don't think internal facebook video ads are blockable, because it use same/similar IP with FB itself. Unless there's something like Vanced Youtube that blocking the ads on app level, i don't think you can block it

Facebook ads, like most streaming ads, are part of the stream itself. Blocking them blocks the stream in most cases.

You can find "debullshified facebook" app in xda, but it's no longer in development

I thought as much! Thanks for the replies.
