Python 3.10 for plugin.video.sendtokodi (yt-dlp)

Help and Support

Hi,

I use the plugin.video.sendtokodi, which uses yt-dlp. The new version of yt-dlp requires Python 3.10. Can Python be updated on OSMC?

EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--
 - NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!

It will come with the next version of Debian

I manually installed version v0.9.995 of the plugin (which still works with Python 3.9) while waiting for the new version of Debian.
