    Fix video playback and compatibility issues using VideoProc bit.ly/3D9vvAJ,, convert videos to 420+ formats, and compress to your desired size.

      @@Shadow_2055 Are you talking about the file you download in the video or are you referring to the tool I have in this pinned comment. I mean either way no there are no viruses and it is completely safe, just didn't know what you were referring to

      @@SamHayden I meant for both. I just want to be safe from my laptop from getting some kind of virus, or getting in trouble by the law or something for downloading a copyright YT Video. I hope that makes sense.

      @SamHayden  Год назад +1

      @@Shadow_2055 I see what you mean, I assure you that there are no viruses, in my video you can see has 35 K views and hundreds of users applying the fix with no issues. The file itself comes right from the VLC website. Also with this fix applied it is just fixing something that is broken in VLC, this is VLC's fix for it. This feature in VLC just allows you to stream a youtube video through VLC, that is it. Any other options and ways of downloading a video I, or this channel, do not support. This ONLY shows you how to stream the video to VLC, nothing further - I hope this helps!

    I tried a number of different ways including replacing the youtube.luac file to make VLC Media Player play RUclips videos before reinstalling the program for that to also not work. Then I found your video, followed it and I'm not sure how, but it's working now.

    Great video, has worked for me in the past. Currently not fixing my VLC streaming youtube. Wondering if there's an update or new protocol going around? Thanks

    • @SamHayden
      @SamHayden  3 месяца назад +1

      Hey thank you!! So an update, I have been looking into this because too many were commenting that it was not working and some report the error, “"VLC is unable to open the MRL" url stream. Upon looking into this, I pulled logs from VLC and upon digging into them, it seems that the error indicates that while attempting to play a RUclips video via URL, it encounters an error with descrambling RUclips's throttling URL parameter, which prevents the video from playing correctly. This is likely due to changes in RUclips's video delivery mechanisms that the current version of VLC cannot handle.
      I am still looking into this and hope to have an answer soon. It may be an issue on RUclips’s end, not sure yet.

    • @SamHayden
      @SamHayden  2 месяца назад +2

      Another Update: So, upon hours of research into this, it appears as though this is happening because RUclips may have changed something on their end and the VLC side has not accommodated for this change as of yet. I have a video explaining this in more detail. That video will be released tomorrow at 8AM central time here on my channel. If you have the notifications on for my channel, you should ne notified when it gets published.

      Hello again, so another update. For the time being, while we are all waiting on a brainiac to create a new LUA file to make this work again, I have found an alternative that allows you to stream URL’s just like VLC used to. I have made a video on this, and that video will launch this coming Monday, in the morning time. If you are subscribed to me, ensure that notifications are clicked on so you don’t miss it.

    Unfortunately, this did not work for me. Downloaded the lua file as shown in the tutorial/video. Then replaced it down in c;/programfiles/..... Reopened VLC, pasted the url. pushed play button, the slider rushed quickly to the end. Video did not play.

      Hey, there shouldnt be a different with a short vs a regular YouTuble video. If it did not work for you. I have outlined in another video what to do if this doesnt work. Quick rundown though, I recommend using revo uninstaller to uninstall VLC and reinstall. This video will explain it, I think its around the 4 minute mark, although there are chapters and it is marked. ruclips.net/video/0EOXsaDgXb4/видео.html

    thank you!

    • @SamHayden
      @SamHayden  Год назад +1

      Hello, thank you for the comment and watching. So, a LUA / LUAC file is a file that is used by VLC to add additional features to the software. Kind of like a configuration or settings file. And yes, VLC is capable of downloading videos from a network stream. I used to have a video up like that but it was taken down for some reason. But if you do a search, I have seen others on RUclips.

    Hi Thanks. It didn't work. I downloaded the newest VLC Player, VLC 3.0.18 and I replaced the lua file i downloaded directly from the site yesterday, but it is just doing nothing. I don't even know when it broke as I haven't used it in weeks so i have no idea what the problem is or why the simple fixes won't work.
    Edit to Add: I downloaded and deleted it 3 times. I loaded programe directly from the exe file and finallyit worked. Thanks for the direct link to the lua. there seems to be an issue with wether it is named lua or luac.

    Unfortunately didn't work for me. Followed the steps, but VLC still gives me an error message saying, "Your input can't be opened:" followed by a super-long URL. Not sure if this video is too old for the most recent updates of YT or VLC, but I need a new fix (or a new way to download from RUclips)... >_>

    • @SamHayden
      @SamHayden  3 месяца назад +1

      Hi thanks for commenting. This fix is not to fix the error you are getting, nor is it a fix to allow you to download from RUclips. This fix is to only fix VLC not streaming a video from a URL. There is never an error associated with this issue. It simply just will not play the video form URL. In addition, this fix is still relevant, I did it the other day for someone and it worked fine, plus I have commenters on this video recently cmmenting that it worked.
      The error you are seeing is usually caused by different things such as VLC Player is not updated, VLC Preferences have changed or a firewall or antivirus software is blocking the video source.
      I would suggest ensuring that your VLC is up to date and maybe reset your VLC preferences.
      Thanks again for watching and commenting

      Update: Hello there, so an update, I have been looking into this today because too many were commenting that it was not working and some report the error, “"VLC is unable to open the MRL" url stream. Upon looking into this, I pulled logs from VLS and upon digging into them, it seems that the error indicates that while attempting to play a RUclips video via URL, it encounters an error with descrambling RUclips's throttling URL parameter, which prevents the video from playing correctly. This is likely due to changes in RUclips's video delivery mechanisms that the current version of VLC cannot handle.
      I am still looking into this and hope to have an answer soon. It may be an issue on RUclips’s end, not sure yet.

      Thanks for commenting. If the video is coming up but buffering, this fix will not fix that. This video is for if VLC dont even read the RUclips video form the URL you put in. If your comes up but bufferes that has nothing to do with this issue. That is a whole separate issue. I have another video that has to do with VLC lagging and skipping.
