Recently Watch Later has stopped working. I’ve upgraded to 1.8.0.148 but this has not cured the issue. I can select a Youtube video added using PlexIt, but cannot view any information about it, nor get prompted for a resolution to play, nothing happens. I suspect it’s a change made to PMS rather than Youtube, because they work using the Windows Store App Plex client. Anyone know how I can get this working again? ---

Do the videos play in plexweb? ---

The plot thickens. Yes they work in Plex Web. But… After weeks of not working, last night, after finally making this post and doing some searching/testing, I thought I’d try my luck again and remarkably I was able to watch a ‘Watch Later’ Youtube video with success. So my possible theories are: 1. Youtube rolled back a change they made to their API 2. The act of me playing a video using the Store App did something to my Plex account correcting an issue. 3. Somehow [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) infrastructure is involved in playing a Watch Later video and they fixed something. 4. Watch Later only works when I’ve had a few drinks and I am planning to go to bed. ---

Watch later can be annoying, it does go DOWN occasionally, but seems not for everyone at the same time there does seem to be [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) in the middle someewhere, as when this happens to me, also cannot watch videos from vimeo etc at the same time as youtube doesnt work, i also find it sometimes breaks right after a PMS update which is odd, and i have to restart PMS to get it back ---

Thanks Daniel, it seems to be working again for the most part. A different issue last night -Plex It was ‘failing’ to add videos, but they were making it into the list anyway. ---
