The VideoLAN Forums

Um, so yesterday I made a playlist with a bunch of YT videos and saved it as an XSPF. When I open it today it won't play any of the videos in it.

Here is the error message it gives me:

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'https://r2---sn-jvhnu5g-n8vs.googlevide ... 0&ipbits=0'. Check the log for details.

I already tried replacing youtube.lua, it didn't work, what should i do next?

You can't use direct links like that because they expire after a while.

How do i get the once that don't?

AFAIK you can't.
You can only use regular Youtube page links like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx

So, if I just leave the videos playing is VLC without closing it for like a day or 2 straight the links will just kind of go bad at some point and I am going to have to add them again?

Yes.
