Maybe the best thing is for people to refrain from posting their life-stories/updates on how their Humax box still isn't working, or how they've bought some other ingenious device to get around the problem. I'm sure I'm not the only person here who would prefer to read nothing more here until there is some news on the boxes being fixed.
(I realise the irony that this posting is contributing to the noise on this forum, thankyou!)

My (2TB) FVP-5000T: No YouTube, same as others.
I note Humax still advertise as FVP-5000T still available including YouTube app!
https://uk.humaxdigital.com/product/fvp-5000t/
I note too, Humax say "Notice of termination of the YouTube app...Current as of 17th of July 2019, we’re sorry to inform you that the YouTube app shall no longer be available on certain set top boxes. Unforeseen changes have been made to YouTube’s HTTPS protocol, which has caused the service to cease operation on these devices... We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.". But this doesn't mention FVP-5000T, so may be there is still hope for us.

Hope this helps.

I have noticed every time i use youtube on my PC in the last month it asks me to log into youtube or ignore. I click ignore.
On my humax you dont get this option. I wonder if this is the reason for the problems with youtube not working.

None of the above. Please wait till a poster posts it is now working,
Youtube is still working on many non Humax devices, too many to list here.
We could easily get dozens of posts merely stating the same,
That is why the administrators have combined all into single thread.
By all means check as often as you want.
If it does work, claim the Kudos to be the first to find it now does.
There is no point at all in a thread that has dozens of posts that we all know is ongoing.
It is frustrating I know. But posting the same repeatably. It is not helping,
As soon as someone has more information it will appear here.

In case anyone is thinking of trying to cast from the Android YouTube App to a Humax box previously linked - that doesn't work either.
I tried it and got the youtube screen with the greyed out boxes.
Tried a 2nd time and the Android app has lost the linked TV it previously found.A fiendish plot to sell previously un-needed chromecast devices, a cynic might say.

Not working on my 1010. Still got the blue screen with the Failing to Launch message. Been a long time now, very disappointing.
