How long is YouTube acc. linking going to be broken??

[Enzo]

I swear its been a month or more already and the ability to link YT accounts to add videos is STILL broken.

[Enzo]

fix pls

[BJWyler]

It will be fixed in Valve Time. Quite frankly, there are more important issues to deal with.

[happy]

probably never coming back, just like they never fixed the youtube implementation with TF2.

Imagine the launcher-web-shop with the most players worldwide that cannot link videos to Youtube ... lmao

Linking to Youtube requires dynamic linking. Dynamic linking requires a lot of performance compared to static linking only.
It seems support for this was discontinued.

Dynamic linking to Youtube requires a driver in Steam.this driver was discontinued.

Ok, fine, but why let the option to link Youtube to Steam then? It's still there... So... I don't think you really know what you're talking about, lol.

The current trick right now is to use a real browser AND try it at exactly 12AM Pacific Time. Any other time will result in an HTTP 500 ERROR or a blank page.

Others have noticed this in another thread.

With Google doing backend work and updating their stuff, it will take a while before Valve can do anything about it.

Often in development if something is broken it´s just being disabled, not fully taken out of the code (because that won´t change anything, yet costs more time to do).

You call this "deadcode". Deadcode is simply left in the code and then moved on.


Trust me: You will miss a lot more functions in 1.5 years when it´s all over then just a dead Youtube-linking. A new world will begin then. Because all Online-gaming will be broken until then as well.
