| Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | Tekuzo | 6/15/12 8:56 PM | I would like to suggest that the developers of Google / Youtube communicate with Boxee and develop an alternative to YouTube lean back. YouTube lean back isn't an acceptable method to access YouTube videos (in my humble opinion). The current YouTube |

| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | Tekuzo | 6/18/12 11:19 AM | I had contacted the boxee staff before I contacted you. Their response was that they did not write the YouTube player on their platform and I should contact YouTube about this issue. |
| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | BoltUpright | 9/2/12 5:19 PM | Boxee did not write the Youtube app, Google/Youtube did. |
| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | BoltUpright | 9/2/12 5:20 PM | It seems for some bizarre reason, you can't access "My Playlists" from Youtube Leanback on my PC either. I've been searching high & low for a solution. Others ask the question but no answers. Surely after all this time Google has the resources to fix |
| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | SchmellMafeet | 9/4/12 6:37 AM | I also cannot see the videos in my playlists and seem to have the same symptoms as boltUpright. I find this odd because it worked only a few weeks ago. It is really the only app i care about on my boxee and it is upsetting that youtube does not seem |

| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | dinnertan | 9/5/12 7:25 AM | i have discovered that if you change your playlist settings to "private", and reload leanback, it will work. The fastest way to do this is to make the changes to your youtube playlists on a PC, and test whether it works by starting leanback on the PC |

| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | Mikey Cooper | 9/23/12 6:28 AM | Thanks, dinnertan! Setting the playlists to private works. |
| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | Tony Bivens | 12/7/12 8:50 AM | But there's still no way to force Boxee's Youtube app to use HD, let alone force full 1080p from it. The whole point of leanback, and the Boxee app, is to watch videos on a large television, which necessitates HD. |
| Re: Youtube Leanback on Boxee is poor | JaysonElliot | 12/26/12 11:23 PM | YouTube's "Leanback" Ui takes usability disaster to an entirely new level. No indicator of system status to let you know when the system is doing anything you've requested, such as performing a search, an approach to text input that only barely skirt |
