I can recomend github.com/firsttris/plugin.video.sendtokodi for youtube … you can share the videos from your phone but you have to deactivate the youtube-addon … the advantage is you can share videos from a lot of other sites to … there is a list of site that work with this addon on github
Cool, so this puts yt-dlp on Kodi and downloads videos before watching them. Hopefully this works better for older hardware than the YouTube plugin, which I think has to use more computationally expensive methods to stream from YouTube directly with the cat and mouse game between yt and them.
Do you know, does it keep the video files it downloads, or does it delete them automatically?
I don’t know … i do not realize a download … I only watch the video I wan’t i think it is only in th cache …

Thanks for the links. Since my youtube use would mostly consists of single videos, this might work for me.
