Oh it is not possible... It is certain that YouTube has been changed to break non-browser downloads.

Looks like yt-dlp is the next target.



PhantomJS mentioned in the screenshot seems to be this one: https://phantomjs.org/

Pesistent pixelated playback and stuttering when streaming youtube videos such as this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpJOdqpg2Hs This seems to be the main issue: lua warning: Couldn't parse unidentified YouTube video throttling parameter transformation lua debug: Couldn't parse and execute Yo...

Pass this link on to your system adminstrator: https://www.videolan.org/security/

It might induce them to upgrade to the latest version.

Are you streaming from somewhere, or are the files located on your own machine? If you're streaming please post the link to the site. Also, please post installed Windows version. For example, Windows 10 version 1803. In addition, if Windows 10, was the PC upgraded from a previous version of Windows ...

You could try a nightly version of the upcoming vlc 4.0: https://nightlies.videolan.org/

More info needed.

• Operating system and version. For example, Windows 10 version 1803.
• VLC version you have installed.
• Make and model of your TV.

See the tutorial about halfway down the page on this site: https://www.videoproc.com/video-process ... titles.htm

In preferences click the Video button and set Output to "D3D11 video output". Next, click the Input/Codecs button and set Hardware-accelerated decoding to "DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) 2.0". Save, exit and restart vlc. This combination works best for me. Incidentally, both y...

This is a youtube ipv6 stream which can be played in vlc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nd10hjClCXo

However, I don't know where the settings are located to force ipv6 in the current version. That said it may not be necessary to do that considering the fact that the above link works out of the box.

Pixelated playback again complete with stuttering when connected to my ISP.

But if I Iogin to my VPN (Mullvad) then it videos play correctly. So it would appear to be a network issue rather than anything else.

You can only do it over a wired connection. Wi-Fi doesn't work: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues/25104

https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=476922#p476922 :wink: Give that man a medal ;) Actually, I made a note of it the first time I saw your suggestion on the forum, but had forgotten all about it. And yes it does work. By the way, I've marked it as SOLVED here, but it doesn't show up that way...

If you're streaming from youtube, Google often changes the code which results in playback problems on vlc. Changing the youtube.luac file addresses that issue. Videolan updates all files with every new release, but being an open source media player it's much cheaper and easier to just release the am...

Is your DVD drive internal or external?

If it's external, see the last post in this thread: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=155598

Download the libdvdcss file from here and place it in the vlc directory at C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\ https://download.videolan.org/pub/libdvdcss/1.2.12/win64/ In vlc click Media ---> Open Disc. DVD should already be selected, but if it isn't select it and click Play. If you still get the error,...

Fixed! I'm fortunate to have an Nvidia Optimus machine which has two graphics solutions namely an Intel 4600 GPU which has to share main memory with the CPU, and an Nvidia GPU with its own dedicated memory, Normally Nvidia prevents their GPU from being configured to run vlc in the Nvidia CP. But the...

This is the Windows version of vlc which Microsoft has permission to offer on the Windows Store. The original file which has far more capabilities can be downloaded from here: https://www.videolan.org/ After you install it you have to configure vlc to open all the files you want to use it for. See t...

Isn't there any multimedia voice controls for windows available at all?
Thanks.

Not many.

Things are not as serious as I thought. The last image re-enabled the troubleshooting wizards which in turn revealed that Windows was connecting to the TAP Windows adapter instead of the NIC. The TAP adapter in that respect is primarily used in a virtual environment. The network troubleshooter ident...

@ Lotesdelere Not wanting to waste anymore time on this issue I re-imaged the system this morning, twice! The first image dated 18 July this year didn't help. The second one dated 5 May didn't help either. So I'm beginning think it might be a hardware issue. Oh, and the techno tool didn't help eithe...

So according to Windows 8.1 there's no internet connection. But you may only need to edit one registry key for enabling the troubleshooter: https://technoresult.com/fix-troubleshooting-has-been-disabled-by-group-policy-in-windows-11-10/#Solution_2_Fix_Troubleshooting_has_been_disabled_Using_Registr...

My problem is totally weird and seems to be network related. Running ipconfig /all shows this all the way through: "Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected" Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : So according to Windows 8.1 there's no internet connection. Yet here I am happily t...
