WINDOWS 10:


Three youtube videos will not stream - No VLC Error Message

VLC Version: 3.0.6 x64

Desc: Attempting to Stream these particular YouTube videos does not work
Symptom: VLC will display the YouTube video Thumbnail for about 1 second, and will also display the YouTube URL at
the top in the title bar and will then stop - NO error message is given/displayed

NOTES: I am using the last known updated youtube.lua script file posted on 9 of January, 2019 from GitHub

I Uninstalled the previous version of VLC player using Revo uninstaller
I then used CCleaner to clean all aspects of my PC out (registry, etc etc) as a standard thing i usually do
I then installed VLC v3.0.6 x64

As subjective as my statement will sound, VLC will successfully stream about 90% of all videos i want it to play
as i regularly play multiple videos almost every single day - probably averaging approxx 50 videos in a typical week


Videos that will not Stream:
