This is a heads-up to the VLC team.
Some time ago YouTube live stream links entered into Open Nework Stream... were crashing VLC and we were advised to add files from version 4 to fix it. Well, I didn't do that but the problem went away, I'm using 3.0.16.
However, as from today YouTube live streams cannot be opened in Open Network Stream... - so I wonder if YouTube have made yet another change that needs to be catered for in VLC.
