Submitted:  Apr 4 2012

Description:

Import a youtube video / playlist into VLC.


INSTALLATION:
- click on the download button below
- when the file appears click on the menu file > save as... of your browser
- put the file in the vlc /lua/playlist folder, by default:
* Windows (all users): %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\playlist\
* Windows (current user): %APPDATA%\vlc\lua\playlist\
* Linux (all users): /usr/lib/vlc/lua/playlist/
* Linux (current user): ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist/
* Mac OS X (all users): /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/playlist/
(create directories if they don\'t exist)
/!\ Some browser (Chrome...) may change the file extension for ".txt" instead of ".lua", so make sure you choose "All extensions" in the dialog box when you save the file on your computer.

USAGE:
- Copy the URL of the youtube video or playlist (must contain "list=PL...")
- Start VLC, press Ctrl+N, paste the url then click on "Play" (or Alt+P then Enter), the video /playlist should start

Troubleshooting:
/!\ Follow this steps if and only if you have already install the script and it doesn't work..
/!\ for the actual script see the "download" button (playlist_youtube.lua) below.
If the videos list appears in the Vlc "playlist" view but the videos won't start, follow this steps:
1) delete the file "youtube.luac" in [Vlc directory]/lua/playlist directory (ex: c:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\playlist\youtube.luac)
2) get the latest version of thr "youtube" script from here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/videolan/vlc/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua
3) place the file in the directory [Vlc directory]/lua/playlist (where "youtube.luac" was)

/!\/!\/!\ Please do not paste your raw error log here, use a pastebin service like pastebin.com.




Changelog:

- display clean video title and thumbnail
- Add support for playlist with 100+ videos
- fix change in youtube playslists

It still works fine for me. Check you have a recent version of Vlc, if not get the last release from https://www.videolan.org. If that still don't work post the URL you paste in Vlc here.

Could you be more specific? Or better give me the debug log: (use ctrl + M and set verbosity level to 2 before you launch the playlist).
Please and thank you.

Your version of the script getting the video from youtube is outdated. You can update Vlc (the script is included) or update the script only, the new version is here:

Thank you. The new script works. Can you update the download link in the first post?

I cannot update vlc because it comes from the Debian Wheezy package repository.

The link I give you is not my script, it's from the VideoLAN team. This extension just manage playlists not the videos, so you have to get both youtube_playlist.lua AND youtube.lua uptodate to read a playlist. Anyway I add the link in case someone else have this problem.

Works great! Is there any way to modify the Addon to only include the 20 (or any number) most recent videos that have been added? Or only the videos that have been added in the last day? I'm trying to create a shortcut for news played through VLC, and don't want to include old news.

Thank You!

Hi

You could do something like this but I didn't test it:


for i, video in ipairs(playlist_parsed) do
if os.time ()-video.time_created < 24*3600 then
local item = {}
item.path = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="..video.encrypted_id.CDATA
item.title = video.title.CDATA
item.artist = video.author.CDATA
item.arturl = video.thumbnail.CDATA
table.insert (p, item)
end

end

Hi, I've run into a small bug when attempting to add multiple YouTube playlists to VLC - maybe you can figure this out.

All of the playlist URL's load properly, but only one playlist gets expanded to play. It seems as if VLC only shows the individual YouTube videos if you actively play the playlist. This makes the Random Play feature see a whole playlist as only one file, therefore reducing the likelihood of playing it.

Is there a way for this plugin to load the individual videos of a playlist into VLC, instead of loading the Playlist URL as a folder?


An example is below, with two YouTube playlists:

Run "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p03D6RtkK_8&feature=c4-overview&list=UU8p1vwvWtl6T73JiExfWs1g" "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tYf07Jri3A&feature=c4-overview&list=UUBi2mrWuNuyYy4gbM6fU18Q"

Nope, the principle of vlc playlist extension is to search the related data to an item only when this item start playing and there is no way I know of to "pre-parse" the full playlist. If it run on a server maybe you can use the "http" or "telnet" interface extensions to start each of them manually first. But anyway I you want the playlist to loop you will face an other problem: the link to the video provided will expire so you also need a trick to refresh the link the 2nd a video is played (but it is not hard to do).

Update it please for the newest version. I enter any kind of playlist and even remove the s from https so I don't get the error. After that VLC just skips through every song without even playing a second of them or load anything.

The problem don't come with this extension, it just retrieve the playlist, not the video. Maybe you have a version of Vlc that not include the script to get the video. You can get it from here:
https://raw.github.com/videolan/vlc/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua
Just install it like you did for this one.

 Unable to play single video from a playlist

 
 by DevilinPixy on: Aug 23 2013

When trying to play a single YouTube video from a playlist in VLC it will default to load the full YouTube playlist. Basically whenever the video I try to add comes from a playlist it will always play the full playlist instead of the single video.

I made an edit to the playlist_youtube.lua to fix this. The regex used is trying to match "list=" within the url. So it will match a playlist even when the actual url links to a single video within a playlist.

Example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<video ID>&list=<playlist ID> (single video)
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=<playlist ID> (full playlist)

Now by changing the regex which is used twice in the LUA code (function probe() and function parse() at the top) from "list=" to "?list=" this solved the problem for me.

Now I can play a single video that comes from a playlist with the first example and play a full list with the second example since the regex does not match for the first example and will not load the full playlist.

Might be useful if the code can be updated to prevent full playlists from being loaded when referring to a single video within a playlist.
