[Bug Report]Can't play Youtube file

[MidnightCoder]

For the youtube urls that VLC 2.2.4 on OS X can play, VLCKit can't play. I saw the following in the output console:

2016-10-07 21:27:51.412910 App[13086:868188] [] nw_host_stats_add_src recv too small, received 24, expected 28

Are you sure you configured AppleTransportSecurity correctly?
Either to allow all insecure connections or by defining a list of dedicated servers that allow insecure connections. The latter one can be quite tricky and it is helpful to enable the CFNetworking logs, which is documented by Apple - somewhere. The log shows all servers/domain that are connected and which are refused by AppTransportSecurity.

Youtube URLs are played with the help of a lua script in VLC. I think, lua is not part of VLCKit yet (maybe I'm wrong, but this would be the most likely explanation).

This should have nothing to do with app transport security, because most of VLCs network code is not using apples HTTP Helpers anyhow.
