SICK OF THAT ANNOYING “LIMIT EXCEEDED” FROM YOUTUBE ?

At one point or another we all have experienced that dreaded notification from YouTube while trying to enjoy a selected video. YouTube Daily Exceed Limit, and for some, it often means the kiss of death and an end to viewing anything else for the day. Trying to follow the 6 step procedure for most of us is, at best, a marathon of making mistakes but more of a source of unnecessary frustration. I recognize this and wanted to come up with a quick guide to help you through your struggles.

At the top of next screen, locate API.

On Use preset API key set, Increase the number to 5 using the up arrow.

Click OK.

Return to the Add-on that gave the limit notification.

For example, if it was a YouTube Music Video, do one of the following. Yet, if you are using a mouse Right Click.

If using a Remote, select the button with 3 Lines. If using a Keyboard simply click the C key.

In the Context menu (or pop up menu) select Play from Here.

You may or may not see a new window * (see note) at this point, if you do, select DEFAULT for the Select the order of the playlist.

Select OK and the “Fix” is now complete.

The above method is by far the simplest and fastest way to eliminate the Exceed limit notification from YouTube. But please bear in mind, after each new Build Installation or Update, this procedure will have to be repeated. Yet don’t worry if anything changes you can always come running and we will be here to assist you again. From time to time they do make a change to the add-on; however, our team will always try to stay ahead of this and report back.

* Note: if you are changing the API number in order to prevent the notification, the new window will not appear. The “Fix” will still be in place.

Conclusion

As I mentioned, all have struggled with running into the YouTube daily limit exceed message and it can be frustrating. Just remember it is quite an easy fix and if you have any questions please feel free to visit us in the Streaming World Forum. It is much easier for us to supply you with answers to your questions in the forum than it is in the comments section.

How to Enable and Configure Trakt.TV in Kodi

What is Trakt.TV “Trakt is a platform that does many things, but primarily keeps track of TV shows and movies you watch. It integrates with your media center or home theater PC to enable scrobbling, so everything is automatic. Some people like to check in from their phone, so we enable that too.” The Trakt add-on for Kodi allows you to automatically scrobble all content you are watching to Trakt.tv. You can keep a comprehensive history of everything you’ve watched. Install and Authorizing Trakt Before using Trakt.TV it must be installed. Many builds have Trakt already installed. If you have such a build, you can skip down to the next portion of this article. Lets begin. Open Kodi and select System> Add-on> Install from repository. Scroll down and Select Kodi Add-on repository> Program Add-ons. The is list lengthy, so scroll to almost the bottom and select Trakt. Click to Install, wait for Add-on enabled notification. Now that Trakt is install...

Kodi Advanced Settings Pt 2

This is the second part of The Advanced Settings XML article, in this follow up post I want to cover a few extra items. Skip Loop Filter Package Folder SIze Remote Delay Remote Repeat Specifcally the first is for Amazons Firestick and reduces the overhead on the GPU by removing some “unseen” frames from the video stream. Skip Loop Filter Click Programs Click Easy Advanced Settings Click Edit Settings Click Audio/video playback settings Click Skiploopfilter Click 8 You can back up to the twice and hit Write XML file Package Folder Size You’ll hear this a lot “purge packages”; so lets explain, packages are the zips Kodi downloads to install your add-ons. Kodi keeps them in case you want to roll back from an upgrade. However, they mostly just use up storage space. They have no connection to buffering, nor speed, nor performance, another often touted myth! We can remove the need to do this monthly clean up by simply setting a fixed size for the fo...

Project Cypher

This is an add on thats been around for a while, with a mix of content, mostly that I haven’t used to be honest, but its recently started to produce some good live streams with I think makes it worthy of recommending. I worked through some of the content this morning and there is a mix of stuff, but of real interest to me personally is the quality of the live links. The other content such as Lingerie Football and Lingerie Fighting is unique to the add on (AFAIK), plus there plenty of horror under the “dark side” link and Serial Killer content too, should that be your thing. Installing Project Cypher Click File Manager Double Click Add source Type this EXACTLY http://repo.run/cypherrepo/ Name the source, Project Cypher Return to the Kodi Home Screen Click System Click Add ons Click install from zip file Click Project Cypher Source Click Project Cypher zip file Wait for “add on enabled” notification Project Cypher Content The long list of live sports lin...

HEVC Bluray from Entertainment Repo

I have been looking over this for a few hours and I have to say I am impressed on several levels – remember this is a beta release. So whats good? There are movies and tv show boxsets – all the main shows, all HD; most links play – though its not a 1 click addon, this has much more to offer, including choosing 720 or 1080 links. Streams are, for the most part reliable and stable, HD links can get a bit “iffy” to say the least sometimes. There is a 3D section, but few of the links work at this point, sadly. The Big Plus Ok, the really big deal here, is the use of high efficency compression, dont panic, I wont bore you with technical guff i promise – in simple terms you get 1080 films (and tv shows) in a 600 kbps stream – yup, less than 1mbps for a HD movie ! Impressive huh? This will be a real goto addon for those on slow or lower speed connections, those devices that are wifi only, like sticks that just wont play 1080 stuff unless it can see the...

Super Favourites

This is not new and its amiss of me not to have added this sooner, but I started digging into a few things to do some advanced topics later and well, never realised the true potential of this add on; its always been on my “to do ” list and i have a feeling that despite Exodus not allowing its use, that SF will be used a lot more with the TV Portal release of its custom EPG app. You may have heard of the author, Spoyser, former lead ‘droid dev for team Kodi, so you know this is a solid stable addon. What Is Super Favourites? In a nutshell Super Favourites allows you to create you own custom Super-Add on with all the best bits of all your favourite add ons (with a few exceptions), along with the bits of Kodi that you use the most. In it’s simplest use case Super Favourites, acts very similar to the standard Kodi favourites in that you add items to it (in a couple of ways, see later), and can then view them in one easy to use list. However, whereas Kodi favourites is simply a...
