Here is my code but it does not work

string[] args = new string[] {
                "-I", "dummy", "--ignore-config",
                @"--plugin-path=C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\plugins",
                "--vout-filter=deinterlace", "--deinterlace-mode=blend"
            };
            instance = new VlcInstance(args);
             player = null;
             using (VlcMedia media = new VlcMedia(instance, "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCF19cBWb0I"))
            {
                if (player != null) player.Dispose();
                player = new VlcMediaPlayer(media);
            }
 
            player.Drawable = panel1.Handle;
             player.Play();

When you 'play' a YouTube watch URL, the HTML page is parsed looking for the actual streaming URL. The real streaming URL, if found, is created as a sub-item of the original media.

So you're supposed to play the watch URL, wait for a finished event, then iterate the sub-items to find the actual streaming URL and play that.

That's how you do it in general, I don't know which library/framework you're using so I can't be more specific.

I have no idea how to make it work with those six year old unmaintained LibVLC bindings that you want to use.

I told you *what* you need to do, you need to work out the *how* yourself. Or, contact the author of those bindings for help, or use some official/better LibVLC bindings for your chosen programming language and maybe someone else can help you.
