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.
You can also pipe yt-dlp into vlc if that suits your fancy.
Mpv works just fine for me
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
