Hello there,

I get an exception when searching for sth. on youtube. There was a similar post at https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy-youtube/issues/53 - but unfortunately I don’t understand the solution.

Do you have any idea?

Hi!, I’m having the same issue. I think the solution is about which version of the ‘requests’ package is installed in the system, but I have updated it using pip and still having the problem. ¿Is there any recommended version?

In addition, this problem in youtube search makes mopidy returning no results at all from any extension. There is no problem when the search is limited to another extensions (let’s say only spotify for example), but not every client allows to do that. IMHO, Mopidy should isolate the extension search results just in case something wrong happens with any of them, like in this case.

Any idea from developer’s side?
