Open Network Stream error

Postby vinckles » 06 Aug 2018 23:16

Hi,
In a public library, I tried to load a youtube video into vlc, Open Network Stream, (copy/paste url). The video will not open. All I get is an Error message, saying: 'Stream cannot load - see log'. I am not sure what it all means. Is there a fix you could give me, in step by step fashion, please?
Regards.

Hello,

we need a bit more information to be able to help you.
To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.
To fix this, please be sure before you start the playback to:
  1. Open: Tools -> Messages.
  2. Set Verbosity to 2
  3. Start playback to reproduce your issue
  4. Save text in a file or copy into clipboard
  5. Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)
Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.
