Opening playlist with saved YouTube URLs not working.

Hi, I've made a nice YouTube URL playlist in VLC media player last night and saved it. When I open the saved .xspf file and start playing a video it gives me an error for each YouTube URL even though all the URLs were playing properly last night. The error looks like this...

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://v20.lscache1.c.youtube.com/video ... 0637992371'. Check the log for details.

It seems to mess with the original YouTube URLs that I entered. So when I save it VLC player changes the entries. I don't understand why it does this. I guess it's a bug, is there any way to fix this now? Will VideoLAN fix this soon?! It's a nice feature and would be great if it worked properly.

Those 'videoplayback' youtube urls expire.
