My OS is Windows 10 Pro 1511, and VLC Media Player is 2.2.2.
I can usually play youtube videos in VLC this way...

Would that be a universal issue, or just one happening my side?

But the attempt did not solve the issue.
What could be the problem? Any advice would be appreciated, and thanks in advance!
