Automatically show "related videos"

[zwarmapapa]

Hi, is there a way to automatically show "related videos" after a video has ended, similar to what youtube does?

I've been looking for such a feature too, would really like to see one.

For the time being, if autoplay related is enabled, you can use the "next video" button to essentially do a repeated "I'm feeling lucky" thing, but this seems very hit-and-miss.

6.4.0 has a rework of Settings - General - Autoplay suggested videos https://github.com/jdf76/plugin.video.youtube/wiki/Installation Also available from the the official repository now.

[chg] Settings - General - Autoplay suggested videos - limit playlist size to 1000 videos - request less relevant videos at one time - old behavior: add 50 most relevant videos for each video played, repeats allowed - result: a lot of barely relevant videos in groups of 50 - new behavior: add single most relevant video, no repeats - result: next video is always the most relevant video to the last video played

The feature indeed works great. But only if the video was opened from the YouTube Addon's "Watch Later" folder. If using a home screen widget, which displays the content of the "Watch Later" folder, starting videos fails with this exception:

It is repeatable using version 6.4.0 with enabled "Autoplay suggested videos" and starting videos from home screen widget (in my case it's the embuary skin). It always fails with this error.

It works if I disable the feature OR start the video by browsing to the "Watch Later" folder using the YouTube Addon.

Can you guys try this with your setups and see if you can reproduce this as well?
