How works Generic playlist parser

[luk3tt0]

Hi guys,
I'm amateur user of VLC. I downloaded some parser plugin but I don't understand how it work.

I downloaded Youtube Parser. The file is lua (I don't know this language).

1) I moved lua file into MAC folder /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/playlist
2) I opened VLC (vers 3.0.18)
3) I loaded my youtube uri (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... JWppa7GA9T)
4) Not works

I tried to load also other parser but nothing works

What is my error?

Thanks

The Youtube Parser doesn't work anymore.

Youtube no longer support the old API (http://www.youtube.com/list_ajax?action ... playlistID)

I have successfully used a slightly modified YouTube Channel Feed to access last 15 items of the playlist.

Here is my code Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/Cx6EJBds

You have to use urls in these form:

Code: Select all

www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=XXXXXXX

where XXXXXXX is the playlistID
