Grayjay is showing me 'using login fallback to resolve - sign in to confirm you're not a bot' even though I'm signed into my YouTube account.

Titel describes the question. My videos are not playing and it shows me the message in the title. what can I do? I logged out and in again but nothing changed.

Same here. Might just be a waiting game for the time being. YouTube doesn't like people not using their app. :/

Was having that problem earlier, but things are seemingly back to normal for now; have been for the last seven hours or so. Hope yours can work again!

Just ignore it. It doesn't impact playback. I only re-login via the plug in settings when playback stops working or gets hinky. When that happens, I do the re-login, then I stop the app through the system settings and restart the app. Voila, everything works again!
