Hi @k9gardner, I assume you were using the YouTube2 or YouTube Cast Receiver plugin, in which case you should have noted this:
Since you are running Volumio 2.873, you will get these playback issues if you don’t update your MPD… The version of MPD that came with Volumio 2.x is just too old to handle YouTube streams properly.
If you do update your MPD, remember to restart your device.
