For those who don't know: VLC also takes a YouTube video address as input (in the menu: Media | Open Network Stream...).
VLC is so damn good
This has not worked for me in a very long time.
Your vlc is probably busted and could use a reinstall. Happened to me once. It still works.
i thought maybe this would work for me: nope. it was awesome when it worked but it's completely broken afaict.
Mpv works just fine for me
You can also pipe yt-dlp into vlc if that suits your fancy.
Strange, that doesn't work for me
Update your VLC player if you haven't already.
There is also a way to individually update just the extractor LUA script that VLC uses to play YT videos, but I haven't messed with that in so long I've forgotten how to do it
