>Maybe the VLC team should have a look at parsing the Youtube videos from one of the Invidious instances like yewtu.be, for instance.
oh, that would be GREAT!

>As far as I know, nobody plans to resolve this. You can still play YouTube URLs either by starting VLC from YT-DLP, or by installing the unofficial backport of the VLC YTDL plugin. =========== am i missing your point? again, what about THIS lua? it works perfectly for VLC 3.0.17.4, nothing else nee...

> The current lua version is basically trying to fetch the source from youtube and parse them to extract the URL, which is not enough now. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/videolan/vlc/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua how come this one works perfectly for VLC 3.0.17.4 then? i use m.youtube.com

>BTW, what's wrong with the latest LUA script ? That should work on any Windows version.
NOW the latest LUA script works perfectly, but wil it be updated IN THE FUTURE?

i replaced youtube-dl.exe with yt-dlp_x86.exe and set the correct path to VLC.exe: ============== @echo off set VLC="d:\Programs\vlc-3.0.17.4\vlc.exe" set /p yturl=Youtube URL (right-click): yt-dlp_x86.exe -F %yturl:&=^&% set /p ytdlfmt=Format: yt-dlp_x86.exe -g -f %ytdlfmt% %yturl...

>We are all waiting for a new LUA script. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/videolan/vlc/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua thanx a lot!!! supisingly it works with WinXP but i'm confused coz i previously asked: >can we expect a new LUA script in the nearest future? Rémi Denis-Courmont: >I guess n...

thank you very much, Lotesdelere! i will right now try what you suggest in the meanwhile i got yt-dlp.exe patched for WinXp! all i had to do was to rename it to youtube-dl.exe and put it in the SMPlayer root folder. very simple, no pasting Youtube URL, no "222"... it just works itself! any...

>The video URL in the OP works fine here on VLC 3.0.17.4 with the VLC YTDL(P) plug-in though. where do i download VLC YTDL(P) and how do i configure it? i am quite new to VLC and i BADLY need to solve the issue thanks in advance ============= is trhis what you mean? https://github.com/mjasny/vlc-you...

>As I said it's not working anymore except for some streams. So we need a new LUA script.
1) can we expect a new LUA script in the nearest future?
2) can you recommend me some alternative player for Win XP (WITH LOW CPU USAGE) that can handle current youtube?
thanks

>I guess a new LUA script is needed, the latest one is from the 27th of July:

did you try it? i did, but 3.0.17.4 still refuses to play youtube video... maybe i did something wrong?

starting from this morning 3.0.17.4 stopped playing ANY youtube video
for example
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGbAYhZoXgQ
can it be fixed?

There is not much to disable in terms of CPU or memory usage. You can run VLC headless from the CLI, but that will save more memory than CPU. Certainly for disk space you can remove unused localisation and then unused plugins. OK, maybe i just should switch from 3.0.17.4 to some older VLC version w...

thanks, already done that

Tools -> Customize interface -> Time toolbar... right?
i cant make it what to do next to remove it

did i udnerstand it correctly it will not work with this OS?

like in Opera12 e.g. to remove items i dont use.
or is it hardcoded?
thanx

its not zero, but 2 or 3%, which is strange to me. is it normal?

VLC with MinimalX 3.0.0 shows album art when it starts to play youtube and i dont need it at all. VLC wiithout MinimalX previousely didnt show album art(((
any solutions?

thanx

thanks for answering
"Hardware accelerated decoding" is grayed out...

i want to use VLC on the other computer in my country house, a VERY old one (Win XP), for WATCHING YOUTUBE ONLY my idea is to remove everything that is not needed for this purpose from the vlc-3.0.17.4 directory to make VLC load faster and (MAIN REASON) play youtube with less CPU usage (now its uacc...

>VLC takes the language settings from the Windows operating system HOW? i am with WinXP anyway, what about the differences in recomended normalization settings i mentioned in the first post? maybe VideoLAN Wiki reсomended settings are outdated: "This page was last edited on 5 September 2013&quo...
