Youtube Kids Support

[obma]

Guess this should be a feature request - although it might be a bug report or error on my side.

Today I tried to setup a kodi profile for my son and connect his youtube account with kodi. I can connect the account (google.com/devices two times - needs parents allowance for each). After a successfull login you get a "YouTube: forbidden" error on whatever item you choose (Watch Later, Abonnements, ...).

Since my own account works on another kodi profile, I guess the problem is the kids account of my son.

Just to be clear: I have copied api_keys.json to his profile.

There appear to be known issues with using the YouTube v3 Data API with kids accounts.

Last time I looked into it, it did not appear to be something that can be fixed by this addon, as the issues are on the Google/YouTube side of things.

I can have a look again, but can't do anything without a debug log showing the requests and errors.
