How could VLC play Youtube videos from within a chrome browser?

Postby Truchmann » 22 Jul 2020 13:46

How could VLC play Youtube videos from within a chrome browser? Directly or by right buttom-clicking on a video? I mean to spare a user the inconvenient procedure of first copying the video address, then going to VLC, then cliking Ctrl + N, then Ctrl + v, and finaly Enter. I use Windows 10 64 bit.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated

I guess you should use a browser extension.

I have found what you had suggested. Thank you. Works for the mouse right bottom for Vivaldi & Chrome. Moreover, there are related extensions there

Re: 'open with' is a solution for firefox

Hi chubinou,

Thx alot for that tip.

I use
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/open-with/
and it works fine.

It needs Python
but therefore it also points batchfiles.

So its usable for every prog that supports errorlevels.

Frank
