I FORGOT SOMETHING SHOOT I'M REALLY SORRY
YOU NEED TO UPDATE YOUR YOUTUBE.LUAC FILE FOR THIS TO WORK!!!
- Go to here https://github.com/videolan/vlc/blob/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua
- Navigate to C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\playlist
(or whatever equivalent there is on Mac; if you have a Mac just fish around in the program files you're bound to find it somewhere)
- Open youtube.luac with a text editor like Notepad
- Delete whatever's in there and replace it with ALL of the stuff with the github file.
- Save the file, restart VLC, and then it should work.
PLEASE REBLOG THIS ADDITION FOR THE LOVE OF CRUMBCAKE THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY IMPORTANT
(and re: other additions in the tags, I hear you and that’s totally fair you want quality! but if you really don’t care and/or those websites are blocked, this is a workaround you can use)
