Has there been an update to the YouTube app since Sunday morning? I tried it then and had no luck getting it to work. I'll have to try again tonight.
Also i presume you can watch all the stuff from 4od on there too? if so that gives you a lot of UK TV content that can now be watched on the 360, even though i believe apps are on the way for that anyway.
Personally i don't see myself using it that much as i usually watch any long YouTube videos on Xbmc.
There is an issue with the Youtube App.
I was having issues where it would corrupt itself, this is Microsoft's doing. It's doing the exact same thing that Mass Effect 3 is doing.
To fix this problem:
1. Download the app. Once it's finished you need to sign out of your account before
Xbox LIVE instructs your Xbox to believe it's corrupt.
2.Launch the application offline and it will bring you to a sign in screen then sign in (:
3. From my experience, after binding my Youtube account with my Xbox and watching a few videos. It gives you permanent access so it won't corrupt itself anymore. (I don't know if it's necessary)
Here is the official youtube tutorial.
